Quite understandably under the current circumstances of snow & ice & all states in between it was decided to cancel the group run for tonight.

However it left a couple of hardy goodgymmers with some time to kill before the GGR Xmas Dinner.

So well kitted out with sturdy boots & warm clothing the three 'musketeers' assembled at Wanstead Station, grabbed some litter picking kit and set off around the station a d along the High Road to patrol the numerous and varied little projects from our dear friends at the Wanstead Community Gardeners to check on the plants & plots and clear any rubbish. Ofcourse the bits found along the High Street were cleared up as well.

It turned out that the parklet along the High Street was a favourite spot for Costa Coffee customers with many a disposable cup found on the snowy seats.

Perfectly timed we were warming up with a hot drink just when the rest of the GGR family started arriving at the restaurant for a lovely get-together
