Four goodgymers packed, stacked and 2 even turned up looking like drowned rats (!) in a bid to finish the Wednesday food parcels for OMA.

We all rocked up slightly earlier than usual, with 2 goodgymers double tasking across the city, and another keen to get back for the big game!

Upon arrival Sarah and the team at OMA were mid cardboard-sort, so our inner child had to be restrained from making cardboard forts and getting on with the job in hand!

We were a little short on chilled produce, but plenty of fresh veggies were on the menu!

As usual, some dreamy teamwork saw us blast through all the parcels in good time with plenty of time for other odd jobs like stacking shelves, condensing cardboard and even parking the van!

Such a hive if activity you could be forgiven for muddling the euros for a world cup!

Ben clearly brought it home for us, forgoing his trusty goodgym shirt, to instead do good in an england shirt ahead of the match!

Great work guys!
