Our litter pick ended up more of a Supermarket Sweep this evening, as we found two trollies at the top of the patb we were clearing. We had a designated rubbish trolley and a recycling trolley, which we did manage to fill in a surprisingly short time.

We doubled the good deed by delivering the trollies back to their homes at the end of the pick.

Thanks to Katie, Dave and Sinéad for suffering through my artistic vision to get some photos for our Portsmouth 100 launch - details to be released soon!

Unfortunately, our planned warm-up in Costa was scuppered when we arrived to find them closed due to "an unexpected maintenance issue" (it involved a lot of mopping), so we instead sampled some delights at the local McDonalds. Dave would not recommend the donut crumble latte, though.

Beaches, river banks, ponds & lakes were all cared for in January by Portsmouth GoodGym.

We went out with family, friends, in groups or as solitary litter-pickers.

Our area has healthier waterways and coasts as a result of our care.

We jumped at the chance to help dogs who are in the care of The Stubbington Ark animal charity and gladly donated a rainbow of towels.

Ranjitha found a cap that she then filled with rubbish before putting it in the bag.

And we had a lovely thank you from a passer by.

One tennis ball had met its fate at the paws of its owner. We did find a bouncy small ball that we left on the fence in case the owner came back to look for it.

Boo to the mobile website deleting my report!

The amount of rubbish around the bins rather than inside was quite comical!

Managed to keep the run going with the discovery of a lost glove!

Sadly the equipment was very wet so we couldnt extend the play from last nights group run!

We did find some tools, a pair of socks (from either end of the park!), a mobile.phone case and a baby car seat!

We started in lovely sunshine but Dave Ms optimism of putting on sunglasses was soon redundant when the clouds came over!
