We could have stayed in eating pancakes, but GoodGym is much batter

Bristol Report written by Shona Buchanan

Well didn't Shrove Tuesday crepe up on us. We had a small but mighty group of GoodGymers who came with us for an evening of Good Deeds. Between us, we group were split between East Bristol Foodbank and The Southville Centre. It was great to have a very tanned Matt join us following his return from his Costa Rican adventure.

Alice D led a running group and Mel led a walking group to the Southville Centre to continue the painting job we started last week. Hugh from BS3 Community had two jobs for us to do and so the group were split between doing some furniture upcycling and railing painting. Thirty minutes later and the group were ready to go and back Queen Square, where they got some more running in with some paced Queen Square laps before finishing.

Meanwhile, Alice W back-marked the rest of us in going to East Bristol Foodbank for a big donation-sort following their supermarket collection last week. There were 70 crates of donations waiting to be sorted, and with all hands on deck, this GoodGym crew got through more than three quarters of them. We have supermarket shelf stacking careers waiting for us. Tim enlightened us with the fact we all didn't realise that we wanted to know, that 99.6% of people in the UK ate something out of a can last year. This left us a whole run back to ponder what our favourite canned item we ate last year was and what that 0.4% ate with no baked beans. Riveting thoughts, let me tell you.

After all that, we headed back to Queen Square, had a quick hopping race and went to catch-up on those pancakes. See you on the flip side.

UK Pun Day? Hail yes, we never run out of puns

Bristol Report written by Shona Buchanan

With Ciara and Dennis mainly deciding to stay home tonight, it gave the hardcore GoodGymers a chance to get out for Tuesday Group Run with only some gusts and a bit of hail to contend with. It was great to have Ellie, Darius and Julia join us for the first time - welcome! It was an extra special day for GoodGym as it was UK Pun Day - surely this is the equivalent of an important national holiday for GoodGym?

Turning the tables

Liam was leading the Warehouse Shifters to Emmaus, where they were helping Xanne on our regular slot in their big donations warehouse. As we had been told that they were going to be leafleting for the night, it was a lucky escape into the warmth and dryness of the indoors! The team were tasked with a massive game of Furniture Tetris (or clearing all of furniture donations into ordered areas with enough aisles and room for movement around them). A lot of shifting, lifting and 'To me, to you'-ing later and the warehouse was in a much better order than before.

Up above the streets of Bristol, leafleting in the night, GoodGym fills your letterboxes, with stuff you'll like - come and run the Children's Hospice Rainbow (Run)

The rest of us headed to Clifton to continue leafleting for The Children's Hospice South West's Rainbow Run. Luckily the hills were not to punful, and soon we were up and punning and ready to go. We split into four teams to cover the area. Between them, they distributed 500 leaflets in less than 25 minutes. Paul B was there so I think he was sharing his secret leafleting skills with the group. The first group back celebrated with the underrated biscuit classic which is The Party Ring. We headed back to centre with the added entertainment of watching trailer-gait and Darren entertained/confused most of us who were vaguely young with a rendition of the Rainbow theme tune with the impressive GoodGym-based lyrics. Luckily the power of Google has refreshed our memories and we kind of know what he was going on about.

Finally, our bunch of pundits got inside and paired up with their well-earned GoodGym pint/beverage/hot shower/dry clothes. Happy Pun Day one and all!
