The GoodGymers came in 2 by 2,
Hurrah, hurrah!
The GoodGymers ran up 2 by 2,
Hurrah, hurrah!
The GoodGymers biked in 2 by 2,
The Aoife and the Shati too,
And they all went into the Ark-T for to clear up human poo.

The GoodGymers came in 3 by 3,
Hurrah, hurrah!
The GoodGymers ran up 3 by 3,
Hurrah, hurrah!
The GoodGymers biked in 3 by 3,
With secateurs ready to lop holly leaves,
And they all went into the Ark-T for to cut brambles and weed.

The GoodGymers came in 4 by 4,
Hurrah, hurrah!
The GoodGymers ran up 4 by 4,
Hurrah, hurrah!
The GoodGymers biked in 4 by 4,
Emily waiting to open the door,
And they all went into the Ark-T for to pick litter and sweep.

Singalong here.

You could definitely tell that it was the last week of January at the food bank: it's been a cold (and therefore expensive) month, and so people are struggling to make ends meet.

In addition to the regular Saturday food recipients there were 17 requests for emergency help. Between finishing packing the parcels for the 2nd van delivery route of the day and prepping the 17 emergency food parcels there wasn't time for much restocking or cleaning and tidying.

You can definitely feel the effects of rising cost of living and reduced benefits at the food bank, and it's heart breaking.

A group of GoodGymmers braved the dubious January weather to take on a DIY duathlon - cycling from Oxford to Woodstock and then running around the beautiful grounds of Blenheim. There was enthusiastic consensus for more of the same in future - but perhaps in a warmer month!
