We all cruised to the university in the bracing cold and soon got on with the run. We sped over to Mencap thinking nothing could stop us until andy spotted a glowing bauble he wants for his house and then we spotted the superb CM1STMAS sign. Posing for photos with both we then jaunted on.

We arrived at Mencap and needed to paint the herb green wall so they can put a blind up. We dug in with me eyeing up a swanton bomb from the top of the ladder and rich eyeing up my booty.

We paused only to look at the amazing artwork Mencap have produced - perfect for Christmas, really beautiful and well done. You can support the charity and get some really nice local goods from the Pop-up on Bond Street, the art shop in the Meadows, and the art gallery that used to be TopShop.

We managed to complete about half the wall and cleaned up before running back. Thanks for coming everyone and we may be back at Mencap soon.
