We were VERY pleased when St Werburgh's Community Centre asked for help indoors rather than outdoors this sub zero Tuesday night.

We were set to help them get 100 place settings washed and stacked for their Christmas Welcome lunch for older isolated people - right up GoodGym's street.

They had new cutlery and other items from IKEA, to free the forks we had to find BIG SHARP knives to get theough the packaging and no fingers were lost at all.

Counting was a little haywire as we didn't have 100 big plates, small plates, bowls or sets of cutlery, but other than that we left a tidy, counted selection of almost matching crockery and tools, plus some very soggy tea-towels.

If you can access it, here's the timelapse video showing our skills - I'm sure the guests will appreciate it!
