This wasn't just any run, this was a scrapstore run! The scrapstore turn unwanted goods from businesses into toys for children - it's amazing!

After meeting at Vivo as usual, a bumper crew through Cabot Circus (I love running through shopping malls!) and St Pauls to the Scrapstore.

They had loads planned for us, and we broke into small groups to get all of the tasks done. The first group were sorting tins of paint (I don't want to gloss over it, it did get get emulsional but it didn't matt-er in the end), another group were cutting lengths of roap, some more were sorting keyboards, another cutting lengths of netting into hammocks, a couple of people sorting prams and finally a group getting stuck into phones. We love those phones!

We could have stayed forever but we had to head back, through the bearpit and back to welshback. What a great run! We're heading back to the scrapstore on the 15th March, spread the word!
