Storm Darragh had brought down fencing at Redcliffe Children's Centre and they'd had to be closed for the last two days so it was great to get GoodGym there to help out in the playground whilst the governors met indoors.

A small task to relocate a lively Hansel and Gretel style wooden playhouse under cover for the winter as part of the roof had blown off in the storm. It is a BIG playhouse, big enough to host plays.

And we soon worked out it wasnt going to fit under the shelter they wanted, no tape measure, mind, at GoodGym we use GoodGymmers to measure things with increasing heights of GoodGymmers and GoodGymmers with their hands as high up as possible.

After much "1, 2, 3 lift... down" shuffling, we worked out Plan A definitely wasn't going to happen, shelter too short.

Plan B was tall enough! After some "1, 2, 3 lift... down" shuffling, we heard the sound of breaking glass which was "just" a clock but proved Plan B definitely wasn't going to happen, gap between school and adventure playground was too narrow, just.

Plan C was tall enough and wide enough! It was also back past where we'd first started. Andninvolved moving a huge tractor tyre (like the ones used in World's Strongest Man tyre-flippibg) which Vaguely Northern Darrenmanaged all on his own, shifting it at least an inch. But we're GoodGymmers, we don't give up and we like a HIIT workour so more "1, 2, 3 lift... down" shuffling, we shoe-horned the HUGE HOUSE under a shelter that, ironically, was where it had lived some tine ago. The school have promised to write down that this is the only shelter it can fit under.

With some skillful use of litter-pickers, the missing bit of roof was added back onto the apex and we could all run/walk away for some light refreshment at Bar + Block as it was festive speed-dating at Club Haus.

Hope everyone's not too achy, see you next week for fun and pizza!
