Tonight we completed a lovely Community Mission in Exhibition Park, Newcastle.

Thankfully the weather was actually nice for once (it normally always rains, especially when litter picking!)

It was good to be joined by Tom, Sam and Sarah. Thanks to Thomas and Sam
for bringing litter pickers along, this made a huge difference and we were very grateful!

It was lovely to welcome Sarah back as she completed her third GoodGym good deed and first Community Mission. Go and give her a well deserved cheer!

We met at the main entrance of the park and had a nice stroll through the park, collecting litter and having a good chat.

We had a good laugh, as I'd hurriedly brought/picked up a roll of black bin bags for tonight from the Supermarket. They turned out to be enormous (240 litres according to the label!) but they were very useful!

I'm sure we will be returning again soon.
