Thanks to Jo for the run report title!

We had to speed it up to get up to the Manor in time to meet the walking group. Then we had to slow it down on our way back as we all walked back together!

Enough of the Bucks Fizz reference, although we did have 2 people in the group tonight who have 0 birthdays this year so there will be celebrations to come, maybe with some bubbles!

Val used her big voice to get us into the Manor and we got to work helping to bag up the many fallen leaves. Jo, Lucy, Sinéad, Judy and Maxine raked and Val got the giant hands to pick up everyone's piles (a close contender for the run report title!!).

Judy completed good deed number 300 tonight and is aiming to get to 400 by the end of the year. 👏 Excellent work Judy!

Annmarie told us about her plans for the Manor so hopefully we will be up there a few more times this year to plant trees and clear out the kitchen so it can be made into a workspace. Watch this space!
