Nail’d it

Celebrity encounter alert

What a glorious night to be back for my first GoodGym good deed in eight weeks as we cleared Exhibition Park, Brandling Park and some of the Town Moor of litter!

While its noticeably starting to feel cooler, it was a lovely evening and I met Charlotte on the way into the park where Liz was waiting with a smile. Louise soon arrived having run there with the litter pickers, before Aimee and Lucy made their way in too. Thankfully Charlotte had remembered bags as the rest of us had thought about doing so and not acted on it.

While marvelling over (and patting) a few cute dogs in the park, we set about clearing the underpass of litter before Liz was approached by a very famous face who asked her all about GoodGym. I glanced across and thought how much he looked like Jimmy Nail. As he left Liz confirmed that was because it was in fact Jimmy Nail! How brilliant is that?! Liz did a very good sales job and I will hold out some hope that he will be back (with the cutest dog of the night) for a session in the future.

In all we collected four big bags of rubbish with Louise finding the best haul- two shopping bags surely left as evidence of someone dashing off on a date! It was great to catch up with everyone and end August on a high note.
