On a long, sunny York evening, GG Yorkies came one by one to collect batches of letters to be distributed across the city.

Packs were sent out to people all over the place, and only one to an address that definitely did not exist.

This is a school. Pretty sure nobody lives here (Kate)

Michael had originally agreed to deliver to one village on the edge of the city but slowly started to take on extras to further away locations. He found himself exploring new roads lined with poppy fields.

Speaking of exploring, adventurer Max was delighted to discover a secret cycle path on his route.

Paula didn't mind where she went, she was just glad to be out doing something good!

With a few stragglers in the 'random' location pile, Nan swooped in and saved the day, bagging herself her 10th good deed in the process!
