On a chilly, overcast Thursday, 3 Goodgymers met to do some litter picking at Chapmans Pond. They say there are fish in the pond, but all we caught was one (intact!) tent. Other items of note included four dinner forks in mint condition. Satisfied with our haul, we retired to a nearby cafe to warm up with some tea and cake. We also ticked off a few January bingo squares - litter pick, good deed in daylight, selfie of getting fit whilst doing good, and popping along to Planet Food to nab more than one good deed in a day.
