Happy 100th Good Deed Sara

So, our Sara has worked her cotton socks off over the past few months. Having achieved her 50th in February, today she received her 100th!

So, how did this happen...50 Good Deeds in less than 6 months and in lockdown?

I did a bit of I B Proofin and did you know that Sara is our local dealer! She did 8 presciption pickups over lockdown. She's no sleeping (in) pill, she's up at the crack of dawn, popping out to get those prescriptions!

Need a job done?

Not got a tool?

Dont worry, 'Just call Sara'

'Just call Sara' did 6 lockdown missions for older people, from fixing a hoover to moving furniture!

Now, can I Busta Rhyme(s) for you? For the remaining 35 good deeds!....

  • Celebrate Good Deeds come on lets celebrate
  • Celebrate Good Deeds come on lets celebrate
  • There's a task goin' in right here
  • A good deed to last throughout the year
  • So bring your gardening gloves and your wellies too
  • We gonna celebrate your 100th with you
  • Come on now
  • Celebration
  • Lets all celebrate and have a good time
  • Celebration
  • We gonna celebrate and log a good deed

And those of you who are cleverer than I am will know that 35, 8 and 6 make 49! So...what was this 1 other task that Sara did?

A welfare check of course on an eldery person to make sure that they were A OK! Cos that's our girl Sara!

We had great fun tonight finishing off the plots....and even 3 beds! An ice lolly or two was consumed, a colony of snails were removed, Emily and Emma joined us for the first time at this task..and a TIK TOK and a few BOOMERANGS were composed!

All in an hours work.

Well done all

See you next Tuesday
