Goodgym Chelmsford hit the alleyways and streets of Springfield for a very decent run (and some jeffing! https://www.220triathlon.com/training/run-training/jeffing-what-it-is-and-how-to-try-it/ ) before joining the Early Years Staff from Springfield Primary School to fork, pick-ax, dig and turn over a patch of land. Together we were able to de-weed the area and got the planter tyres in place for the children to plant, play and learn from!
The marvelous staff were happy for the help and efforts on a job that would have taken a lot longer without six extra pairs of hands, especially needed for some very stubborn roots!
So, in the spirit of the occasion and the obvious Simpson's link, here is a classic Lisa Simpson quote: "Don't You Think We Ought To Attack The Roots Of Our Social Problems "
