Tonight we started our group run by welcoming Alacia then naming and numbering off. In honour of the Boston tea party, we stayed which British institutions we’d chuck into the sea!

Pete led a small walking group, whilst Ed led the rest back to Park Grove for a second indoor wrapping task. This time we were wrapping water bottles and prizes given for the most speedy wrapper and the neatest.

We soon made our way through 250 bottles, counted them into bags and cleared away for our Christmas edition of pass the parcel fitness. Each layer unwrapped a treat and a fitness task. Mainly for Vicky’s entertainment, everyone embraced walking like Santa and turkeys and passing a smile, as well as some more traditional exercises like press ups and lunges. Sadly we ran out of time for musical statues of pain - we’ll save that for January!

Time soon flew so the gang headed back to base one last time in 2024.

Hope to see lots of you on Friday at the Christmas party! If not, happy Christmas!
