Myself, Jenna and Stef met at Planet Food Café at Southlands Church hall to help clear the hall of tables and chairs.

Stef started on the tables whilst Jenna and I got stacking the chairs. All 3 of us then swept the floor and made the hall look neat and tidy. Sophie from Planet Food asked if we could move some empty crates so I asked Stef (as I was very busy doing something else!!) if he could move the crates. After a few minutes Stef asked

where are these plates I'm supposed to move?

To which I answered

crates, not plates!

Confusion over, the crates were soon moved and the task was finished in just over half an hour.

This is a great indoor task for anyone who is available on a Thursday afternoon - with the bonus of free leftover food (we each took some bread/bread rolls/bananas/yoghurt away with us).
