Time to take down the remembrance poppies that we'd put up on lamp posts along Welling high street a few weeks ago.

The plan was to release the cable ties so they can be re-used next year. We each had a go, using screwdrivers to ease the grippy-bit but, despite our best efforts, no-one could master the trick.

So to plan B: cutting the ties instead. Even that was easier said than done - those thick plastic straps were super-tough to cut through! ✂️

GoodGym persistence prevailed and we walked-and-talked our way between lamp posts to get the job done.

With poppies safely stored away we headed home.

Next week's task sees us back in Welling, putting up stickers that thank sponsors of the town's Christmas lights. Why not come along and have some fun with us!
