I called Mrs D in the morning. She was not sure if she has something to pick up for the dry cleaner but I offered her I can check for her. My second stop was at Waitrose for a little shopping. And my final on is at Oxfam with some donation by Mrs D.

Goodgymers gathered weekly at Tesco super store shopping for people in need.

Today, we did 3-4 rounds each on average. Many of them had long lists. We were almost overwhelmed.

However, one of the best bits of this mission, when we have problems, we will come together and solve the problems or even have a good laugh!

Custard coffee. What is that? Kind of sweet? Dessert or new coffee flavour I haven't heard of? In the end, problem solved...

It was Costa coffee.

Cheers everyone!

Today morning thick clouds were on the sky with a chance of rain. I called Mrs D before the mission to ask what she need today. First I went to pick up her order from Planet Organic then a bit of shopping in Waitrose and finally another pick up from her local dry cleaner.

Are you available to help our friends at Food2You on a Wednesday morning in Surrey Quays? This is a fun task that will make a big difference!

What's involved?

• Meet Food2You team at Tesco in Surrey Quays between 9-11am (there are some doors at the far end of the Tesco store, near the sugar section)
• Pick up a shopping list and head into the store to find the items
• Bring these back to the team, where together, you will double check the items before they are boxed to go through the till

Food2You is a shopping delivery service provided for older people through Age UK. We are excited to be able to get involved, with this task now a weekly activity on Tuesday, Wednesday and Thursday mornings.

You will, of course, need to adhere to social distancing rules, wear a mask and gloves and take direction from the Food2You team.

You will make your own way to the task, but feel free to go for a socially distanced run with fellow participants when the activity is complete.

For today's mission was a long row of shopping trolleys with shopping list had waiting for us. We cracked on immediately, picking up staff before the supermarket got busier.
