The world cup has now come to an end and millions of people search for something to fill that void. Some of you beautiful people come out for a fun in the sun with GoodGym.

Our task for the evening was to return to 3space and finish off the beautiful paint job that we started the week before.

Routes are all about trial and error and after last weeks stop start journey up to Oxford street we opted for another route. Slightly smoother, less people, more sites, more smells and more importantly more exciting.

On arrival alice was overjoyed to see us once again . A quick water and grape break and we were on our way. Rollers and brushes at the ready. GO… we worked like bees in unison. BISH BASH BOSH, 30mins later those walls looked like new. No paint on the floor, none on the sockets, just the walls, well maybe some on our faces lol. Never the less, a job well done.

Alice thanked us for our help once and we were on our way, weaving in and out of people, through back streets, the back of shops, anything to keep going. We arrived safely at Hyde Park where the hard work would begin. Lampost intervals. Jog to one, sprint to the next, repeat. All the way to the end. Out of the park across the lights and into Green Park. Time to run like a Ninja or little bunny rabbit, SILENT, no noise allowed, lean forward land nicely on your fore or mid foot and smile. We did this all the way through Green Park. Yes we received some strange looks, but did you enjoy it. A big YES.

Out of the park, up the steps and we were back at our home.

Great night, great session, great task, great people. Thankyou all for coming and making my Wednesday worthwhile. To Bestminster.

Have a good week and continue to do small things with great love.

See you on the other side…..
