Six Goodgymers rolled up to St. Christopher's Fellowship on this suprisingly warm September evening to help tidy up, clean and do some weeding at the front of the property. Once we had assembled and before being greeted by the task owner, we took a moment to congratulate Monika on reaching her 50th Good Deed (woohoo!) and proceeded to hand her the coveted black '50 Good Deeds' sash, as well as the customary congratulatory cake!

After Monika had donned the sash and tools were in hand, everyone got stuck in raking, sweeping and weeding the area which was in need of some long awaited TLC! People seemed to be having a lot of fun with Cathy and Rebecca doing some brake dancing, while JP took the plunge and opted to do a spot of dumpster diving, with a sweeping endorsement from Anita! Monika, graceful as ever, sashayed around, brooming with pride at her awe50me achievement!

Before we knew it, an hour and a half had passed, and it was time to pack up and head to the Tap for a celebratory drink and slice of Sal's cake! There, we were met by Luis and Monika from Hounslow, who travelled in to join us celebrate Monika's impressive GG milestone :)
