11 high-flyers embraced the most punderful time of the year to bring joy and leaflets to the good folk of N15 on behalf of St Ann's Church.

Huzzah for Sam!

Sam breezed past 100 deeds this week and celebrated by committing to emulate Kipchoge* this Sunday as she completes the inaugural Haringopoly Marathon. At least she had to settle for that, as she may or may have not failed to secure some cheap tequila on her way to last night's task. Margaritas on the way to the finishing line on Sunday?

On The Fly

We only tend to do one flyering task a year and it always seems to be around Christmas. Somewhere Freud is giving himself blisters, rubbing his chin.

Aaaaanyway, this time around Sarah liaised with the lovely people of St Ann's Church and we offered to deliver over a 1000 leaflets with their Christmas greetings and festive schedule.

Sarah arrived with a lovely route planned and leaflets divvied up in easy to handle bunches. Alas, that was the highlight of the night's organisation. While she was distracted planking her way through a photo session, someone whose identity will always remain a MystEry MEssed up the leaflet allocation system and after that, all bets were off.

Goodgymmers ran to and fro as if trying to top up their good deeds on the Big Guy's Naughty or Nice list and leaflets were being delivered at blistering speed.

Highlights of the night included many a beautiful house decoration, a very friendly chihuahua, and the fact that we discovered that Neil was at home with his feet up, drinking hot cocoa, and spying on us - so he's definitely on the naughty list now! :)

After a good 90 minutes, we cracked opened the french fancies to celebrate Sam's 100th Deed (and Kapil's last week) and before saying our goodbyes, a now resigned Sarah gave us a quick street art tour of her neck of the woods.

All in all, a cold night made warm by our lovely Goodgymmers' Christmas cheer. Having said that, there was an underwhelming lack of carol singing so everyone bring their singing voices next week!

*Kipchoge's nan, I should point out :)

Indeed it was a lovely route planned. Mapped with coordinates too! 'Tis the season to be 'JOY'ful. Great photography.
