We kicked off our 2024 Hilsea Lines project this evening, starting with a very chilly jog around the Lido.

Before we got stuck in to the pickings, we had a small coronation ceremony for Queen Judy, who completed her 500th Good Deed last weekend. She looked absolutely fabulous in the GG Crown, and nearly went home still wearing it! Massive kudos, Judy, what a fantastic achievement.

We didn't need to stray to far from the car park kebab van to find plenty of litter about. Plastic forks were definitely our top find of the evening. Dave narrowly avoided having to crack out a "hand job" to unearth a half-buried sandwich packet, much to Ellie's disappointment.

There were also lots of suspicious car boot deals done this evening, with donations of towels and books being traded for jigsaws to check for Make.

Area Activator for GoodGym Portsmouth. I swear like a sailor, burp like a foghorn. Human A - Z of Portsmouth. Ultimately charming.
