We prayed for the rain to hold off last night. Clearly someone somewhere was listening :-)

Wrapped up nice and warm we headed off into the night to return to SW1 to finish stripping and start filling.

I nice jog steady as you like in and out of the people going about their daily business completely oblivious to our mission at hand.

We arrived and as always we were greeted with smiles, up the steps, music on and let us begin.

There was going to be one difference today, we were going to start filling ;-) . Now to some that may not sound exciting but when you have been chipping away walls for weeks its a nice feeling knowing that you can now start to make it look pretty again. So thats what we did.

Two people started to fill in the holes while the others removed what still remained of the wallpaper. Hole after hole disappeared as we worked our way around the room.

30mins later we were out the door and on our way back base.

What we didn’t expect on our way back mid interval rep was to run into a march. We made our way quietly around the crowd completely unseen of course and continued with our goal to get those knees up.

Great night spent with like minded people, as always truly a pleasure…

Now please continue to do small things with great love….

Till next time…….
