Despite the miserable weather a group of hardy volunteers turned out for tonights task, including new member Douglas
We celebrated Jenna reaching her 300th good deed and in traditional fashion she got to wear the magnificent cape of good deeds. There was also some epic ultra running to celebrate by Nikki,Michal and David, but unsurprisingly they weren't there so we'll save that for next week!
Mitch stepped up into run leader role tonight and led the group off the the Groves to meet Tracy and Ian. Much to our surprise the painting task was still on (and went very well!), so one group headed off to paint a garage wall. Another group did some digging and the remainder were asked to move VERY HEAVY stone so they could be built into flower beds, using sack trolleys and wheelbarrows. As predicted by Paul K, Max over filled his and buckled the wheel (no permanent damage hopefully).
Everyone got their heads down and worked hard and in no time it was dark and time for the team photo. We then did some fun circuits before running back to base to Jenna's delicious millionaires shortbread. She checked nobody was diabetic, but they may be now!
Thank you gang for your hard work in the damp tonight!
