On Tuesday, we welcomed back Ros from her world tour, she had spent the last few months travelling she visited 7 different countries that’s almost as much as I’ve done in my life! I need to up my game!! You could tell she missed her GG family as most people after all that travelling would stay home and rest the first few days back in the Country instead she came out to do some goodness with us. Welcome back Ros we missed you and we are happy to have you back with us.

We had two options to get to the task, walking or jogging, half chose the walking option led by me and the other half jogged with Liz.

We were heading to the Boulevard to do some weeding on the raised flower bed dedicated to Joan Peck.

After collecting the tool from Jerry, we made our way to the flower bed and began our task of weeding and pruning, while hearing more about Ros’ globe trotting adventure. It was also an opportunity to catch up with Paul, he once was a regular with us but now attends another Goodgym area led by the amazing Anna.

We discussed our birthday celebrations at the end of the month and our upcoming tasks over the next few weeks.

Not being biased but the team did an amazing job tidying up the raised bed, shout out to Dovile who has gotten us a potential new member who she spent some time talking with about good gym.
