blistering and busy at the foodbank

Led by Linda Sharman

Storm Eunice was in the news all day, trees came down, roof tiles falling down, and this lead to some congestion on the roads. Since cycling was generally advised against, James very kindly got a lift from Linda to the foodbank.

When we got to the foodbank Aj was already there, and Irfan had implemented a new system of packing. Done away with the standard food package, we have a much longer list of everything in stock, but with a additional column with quantity we can give them/ they want, some some packages we did fast, it might still take some time to get used to the new system but we'll manage.

Linda very kindly gave James and Aj a lift home, but they had to earn it, with 2 deliveries to sort out.
