We'll muddle through the mud

This is an ongoing mission which has had many visits from different awesome teams who together are making a big impact. Mrs I wants to be able to grow lots of vegetables in a huge patch, which I hope she is able to do soon. I was really impressed to see how large the patch that has been dig over was now. Luckily today the squidgy, squelchy mud had dried out a bit and we therefore didn't gain mud rims for our shoes. Today was also a lovely sunny day which is always a bonus.

Mrs I was very happy to see us and after giving us warm gloves (Matt was especially excited about) we got straight to work. We weeded, dug, raked and saved a juicy worm. I feel like the worms have to be mentioned at this garden as they are gazillion of them!

Whilst working Matt suddenly yelped in shock, me and Charlene both thought there was something major wrong with Matt!!! It turns out he was just excited that goodgym were live on Facebook from the cross country race start and as one of their loyal viewers he had to watch a bit to support the raceteam. Go GG racers!

Anyway back to the mission, we worked hard, (even Matt) and finished with a lovely cup of tea and cake. Success.
