Mission

What goes up, must come down....

1 GoodGymer made their way to help an isolated older person in Hackney.

Ms A had a bit of a clear-out and needed a hand getting the bin bags down to the bins.

A jog up the stairs brought me in front of Ms A's door with 30 seconds to spare. She was very apologetic that the lift next to her flat was broken, but that doesn't put a Goodgymmer off - it is just an extra little workout to take the stairs. Two trips and all 7 bags were down at the bin, leaving Ms A happy.

Note - there was another lift at the other end of the hallway - lift down with bags, up the stairs for the next round seemed a fair balance!
