Penultimate session of the widely loathed month of January, I'm personally not month-ist, but I get it. Those folks need a bit of a GG, eh? Last night's session a lovely midweek tonic as per norm.

With the return of Eujene and Dan's celebratory news, spirits were high. Due to a dearth of options (none) provided by me, we opened question ideas to the group, luckily we didn't discuss "best arondissement in Paris?", but " favourite French thing?" instead. Boulangerie, TGV, fomage, Call My Agent, baked camembert, cycle infrastructure and this week's winner: people saying DONK.

Short hop over to Get Out, upon arrival we realised we had no idea what to do, after some frantic messages with Kieran, we came to a loose understanding of what to weed-out and what to shovel-in. Stephen told me a solid joke about bins, he'll entertain you too if you ask, I suggest you do. As sessions go, it was a light-weight on the running and also the actual work on-site. However the chat was of a high-quality and the post run snacks were classy french nibbles, so there's that.

Next week we're at Emanuel Church, making sandwiches and clearing a room out. Sign up here.

Till then,

B
