Part 2 of the leaflet dropping for SAW was perhaps uneventful compared to last night - no paper cuts or history lessons - just 5 Good Gymers going about their business, some would say in a “SAW and order” fashion”.

In record time we delivered the remaining 250 leaflets, including handing out 2 sets to inquisitive children who (a) wanted to know what we were doing and (b) were then treated to a please & thank you lesson from Michael 😊.

Probably, the biggest challenge of the evening was finding our way out of the Milton Estate – we assumed that we’d be looking for a Byron Street, or a Coleridge Close, or something like that but that’s SAW’s Law isn’t it, you never can find a poet when you need one!

Kudos to Dan and Michael who did both parts 1 & 2 of the SAW task and also to Dan for acting as map coordinator / route planner on tonight’s task – much appreciated!
