Who run the WORLD
9 GoodGymers made their way 3.6km to help the Forget-me-not Cafe and gardening club in Cardiff.

The weather was very different tonight, but with it still being so muggy (good word) the little rain that we got was very much welcomed.
Tonight, the Women of Cardiff goodgym took to the streets to help out the 'Forget-Me-Not' group with their raised beds.
The beds are used by the group and the local community and the task at hand;
- Raking of leaves,
- Removing the weeds, and
- Encouraging plants to shake their thang releasing SEEDS.
We all already know my feelings about the term weed, but he ho lets go........As the wonderful Björk said:
It's wet in the middle
With a shell around it
It's called "life"
It goes wherever it wants to
Don't try to predict it
Then you'd offend it
It's meant to surprise
Nature's Great
We worked hard, and it could clearly be seen at the end of our 30 minutes volunteering. A few of us also got the gift of forget-me-not plants to take home. Mine have already been planted and hopefully have survived the run home.
We will return to help again soon, the time of the buddleja is getting close - our annual cut back of what is now a skyscraper of a plant.
