It was wonderful to be back out with our lovely Goodgym family this evening after a couple of weeks rest over the Christmas holiday (it went soooo fast!!). I hope everyone enjoyed the break and had a lovely time celebrating with family & friends.

It was great to see Karen, Kat, Maurice & Rob with us tonight – really lovely to have you with us again tonight Rob.

With tasks still a bit thin on the ground, we were back out doing one of our absolute favourite Goodgym tasks this evening - a post-Christmas litter pick around the park. At first, we didn’t think we were going to fill our bags as litter was looking a bit thin on the ground – but as is often the case, we were chuffed to collect 5 (nearly 6) full bags of rubbish!!! The area around the park is undoubtedly looking cleaner and more cared for! And the star find of the evening had to be Karen's golf ball!! I'm not sure whether it made it home to Nigel though.... ;-) (for those that don't know, Nigel loves nothing more than finding a golf ball - in fact, I think he collects them, lol!)

Some of us have challenged ourselves to be active every day in January, so tonight’s litter pick went a long way in helping towards that because we covered a whopping 5K – our pre-task exercise and walking while litter picking combined. Not a bad effort for an evening’s work!

A big shout out to Maurice for coming up with our pun for this week! Thanks Maurice – you’ve saved me at least 3 hours work tonight! Lol!

Well done everyone on another fab night of helping to make our community a nicer place to live! You’re all awesome!

Have a great week and hope to see you soon.

Bucket loads of love, Nicola xxx
