Chimply Painted
5 GoodGymers made their way to help the Society of St James in Portsmouth.

5 GoodGymers made their way to SSJ this evening to finish up the big group room in the back. With help from Tony, we got all white boards off the walls in order to go roller mad on our second coats. There was some first & second coats of paint needed as well as edging all around.
We were up on chairs, lying on the ground and swapping between rollers and brushes to get into all the nooks and crannies. Watched closely by our two monkey companions (who we don't recall being there last week!) as well as some bus passengers stuck in traffic! They seemed very curious about what those odd girls in red were doing in the window, but some gave Sarah a hearty thumbs up and smile!
Jen came along for her first SSJ experience which also happened to be her 50th good deed - Go give her a cheer! She can't make the group run tomorrow - we suspect she's trying to get out of wearing the 50 deeds hat!
And of course, on top of the group room, Sarah could not resist sneaking back into the office to perfect some white frames!
We will be back February 6th with new walls to discover and brighten up if you fancy signing up, check it out here
