A little bleary eyed from our GG Christmas dinner last night (a fun but rather shambolic affair!) 6 of us rocked up to do some rocking out at the Canons!

Emily had all the gear, we all had Christmas cheer and the residents had Reindeer ears! We got down to our Carol's, with lyric sheets and musical accompaniment instruments for all. We went through a range of Christmas genres, from We wish you a merry Christmas to Silent night and Rocking around the Christmas Tree. Kudos to Freddie, our little helper who all the residents soon got to know! Unfortunately we didn't have time for Ella's new creation of the 'Twelve Days of GoodGym Christmas' but we will save that for Wednesday so watch this space...

We hope the residents enjoyed themselves, it certainly looked like they did!

Finally a welcome to Anna and her first good deed with GoodGym. We hope to see you again!

Merry Christmas Y'all :)
