Many red t-shirts make light work and 17 is definitely many!
Somehow the walkers beat the runners to the Children's Scrapstore and the ITV news rep beat us all to be waiting for us with the Scrapstore staff.
A bit of stage management and us all pretending we liked talking to each other as we walked to the far end of the warehouse, having stripped off our outer layers to be as on-brand as possible for the camera!
Those who were new to the phone task soon understood the process and methods were developed, adapted, abandoned and just ignored as the production line sped towards filling the two empty crates with newly matched up handsets to desk units, plus all the suspiciously "not phone" hits separated for recycling.
Gone are the days of top executives making important deals on these phones, or calling home that they'd be late AGAIN, instead they're off to children's playgrounds for some make believe games, calling home that they'd be late AGAIN and other storytelling...
Somehow, the kit at the bottom of the crates was even dirtier than the rest but we had time to wash hands before our successful end of task photo by two very full crates of matched phones, some of us having been interviewed and all of us keen to get back to Workout where cake was awaiting us to celebrate Alice's 10th anniversary of joining GoodGym and Tim's 200th good deed. It reminded us just how much we like cake, and friends. And cake.
Well done everyone - we smashed it (well, it sounded like we smashed it)!

IT was time once again to help out Bemmy Lanterns with their annual winter lantern parade. All the local school kids in the area worked with artists and teachers to create some fabulous lanterns, showcasing the talent, and creativity of the youth. Then we came along after the parade and smashed it all up. Each year they make new lantern designs, so these ones would only be taking up precious space, that's where GoodGym deconstruction skills come in!
Special shout out to Jason, who smashed his 400th good deed this session! Well done and thanks for all you do for GG Bristol!
Thank you for coming along and helping out everyone! Bemmy Lanterns were very happy for our help, and have asked if we are interested in helping again next year.

The second good deed of the day started almost as usual, but this time we found our missing Sara(she wasn't lost, just really busy, however GG missed her very much!) Nothing too far out of the ordinary otherwise, making good progress against the weeds ready for berry growing season, coming very soon. Thanks for coming everyone!

In a twist of calenders, we ended up with at least 3 tasks this Saturday. Starting off with a quick trip to the top of the slopes for the usual shenanigans. Only this time a jawbone was found, likely a deers, deep within the hedgerow. Ok ok, not that crazy, but it's a darn sight more interesting than the usual beer cans and other crisp packets! Thanks for coming everyone! See you next month.:)
