After Junior parkrun volunteering and a coffee with the crew, I set off running from Acton to GG Camden territory. I ran 11km to reach the flat of Mr J who needed help clearing in his lounge around his desk and sofa. Mr J mentioned that he was having issues bending down and getting back up so Goodgym visit was much appreciated. I decluttered with him around his desk, by the shelf and near the sofa. A lot of electronics, old bags(plastic and fabric), papers, empty boxes etc. After 90 minutes, I filled 7 bags and went to the basement to the bin storage room. Mr J was happy and it was clearer in the lounge. During the declutter and clear out, I found a brand new T-shirt from a British band in the 80's which I clearly can remember. Mr J has never worn it and totally forgot he went to see them at the O2 Academy Brixton. Yes it was the twin brothers Matt & Luke plus Craig a friend from Bros. They had a huge fan base in 1988 and Craig quit soon after but the brothers carried on and were very successful until they split but reunited which I think Mr J went to see in 2019 and got the T-Shirt.
