Share the love

Arriving at base, there were mixed feelings on how busy it was. Partially nice that there were enough people helping out, but sad there were a lot of people needing the help.

I got going with sorting the wheels & tyres on the rubbish trolley while waiting to have a word with queen Euphemia regarding deliveries. Turns out the dynamic duo cleared everything earlier in the day, so no deliveries left to be done! This meant there was time to take out the tool kit and set to work checking & fixing the little fold-up tables - some had screws loose, others were missing screws and were falling apart.

Spare screws were discovered at a little shop along Lea Bridge Road earlier in the week - that turned out to be an Aladins Cave of ironworks! Tool kit & glue completed the set of all that was needed... and when done all tables were ready to be used again.
