A chill in the air and a misty moon, waxing whilst it lights the damp October streets of Stanway. The Goodgym team stealthily negotiate their way to the Foodbank...an early Halloween task and no tricks, just a clean up treat. We spotted the signs of ghosts, ghouls and zombies in the sub-urban upside-down but Stranger Things were about to arrive.

Frazer, approaching an impressive 100 Good Deeds, and I got to work but Em must have missed the Hogwarts Express and arrived on a second hand broom still in her Hogwarts uniform! Three is the magic number and our wands were brushes and mops and our potion was mop bucket water!

Once a year Goodgym gets a little creepy, but as Ron says: "You're a little scary sometimes, you know that? Brilliant...but scary."
