The tale of the Hoe & Rabbit - batteries included
25 GoodGymers made their way 6.1km to help the Catton Grove Community Centre in Norwich.

After the GoodGym BBQ yesterday, a few of us were wanting to get out and burn off a few calories but what a fantastic afternoon it was and thank you to all those that were able to make it.
This evening's run was to visit Catton Grove Community Centre as this time of year their bushes are prone to be overgrown so our task was to keep it all trim and looking nice.
We had two new runners this week in the lovely couple Ryan & Annie.
A few milestones too with Andy & Kate completing their 25th good deeds and Dave Tuthill completing his 25th good deed :-)
Hayley was photographer and what a great one she is.
Elizabeth was backrunner outbound and Bill inbound.
Linda met us on arrival and talked us through the areas that needed trimming back, the main focus being in front on the community mural. We had plenty of tools to use such as hoes, shears, loppers, rakes, spades and forks.
Andy may have found the most bizarre item on a GoodGym run to date... a rabbit (not the animal kind) complete with batteries. Safe to say it wasn't going to be recycled.
In the half an hour we had, loads got done and we even had time for 5 minutes of fun in the park :-)
Next week we're having a games night at The Hamlet Centre.
