Thursday 6:15pm is GoodGym Windsor Night! 👑🏃‍♂️🏃🏻‍♀️

Tonight we were back helping Age Concern at The Spencer Denney Centre painting the walls in the lobby and doing a bit in the garden.

Who stole summer? Gimmie, Gimmie, Gimmie 🎶 us some sunshine please! It’s was a grim day and rain was due so we opted in our group chat vote for painting indoors.

We all met at the centre tonight (some walked or by car)and while waiting for everyone to join we played with the baseball in a circle not sure what the name of the game 🎶 was. Still it kept us entertained.

Task owner Rachel had the brushes and paint at the ready and showed us what needed doing.

Special welcome to Nic for her first Windsor 👑Thursday evening session 👏🏻 and Didem has now completed 10 good deeds with today being her 11th so well done Didem. 🤩

The crew tonight were Helen, Marilyn, Natalia, Jen, Sue, Nic, Caroline , Didem and Mandy.

We cleared the lobby area, got set up with dust cloths, chose our preferred brushes and a section of wall.

ABBA was Didem’s choice of tunes tonight although we did seem to get take a chance on me 🎶 on repeat 🤣 but thank you for the music 🎶 anyway!

Sue and Marilyn decided to be brave and did some garden tidying instead of painting and cleaned the garden furniture in case the sun does ever decide to show itself 🙏🏻 and the guests can sit outside.

The others literally finished up all the paint supplies… Mumma Mia 🎶 ! So then one buy one after tidying up and washing brushes in the Waterloo 🎶 we all ended up in the garden anyway … so much for the vote 🤣 still it wasn’t too bad. Most of the rain was coming off the leaves of the tree in the wind.

Not letting anyone go early Mandy put on a quick 10 min Joe Wicks fitness video and we had a go at what we could without a mat.

Then it was time to do our group photo… sorry I missed Helen in this 🥲 then did our Windsor curtsy and say our goodbyes.

Thank you all so much for coming lovely to see you all and some new faces these last couple of weeks 😍
