Despite the much improved lighting situation, we still met just inside the door, with Bianca wearing three layers and two pairs of socks!

We set off after a hyped up run briefing from leading light Laurie where no one seemed to have any energy. Beatboxing on the way we met leading light leaflet legend Fay who had prepared a great haul including a youth disco which got Joe reminiscing. We split off into two groups and got to work. Doug raised the union flag with Brexit pride and Sallyann even managed to find a brand new beatbox!

We delivered all the leaflets, and even the extra ones that Chris seemed to find, and headed back to base. Angela swung off early to prepare for bicycle shopping and Andy couldn't be bothered to do the last beatbox. For shame! If we miss out by 20 points we know who to blame.

It is also the quiz this weekend on Sunday, and if anyone wants a lift to Barrow farm on Sunday morning for the task there do let me know.

Make sure you read the email from Laurie (cough Martin cough) about the run next week. We will be setting off from Lidl to the foodbank. It is a longer run and there is a list of stuff they need to bring. We may also head to the pub after. Beat the street ends next week during the run so we can all celebrate! Especially if we can catch the girl guides!

On a glorious Spring evening we met outside the Old Factory Gym and admired Chris' new, crisp and odd smelling Goodgym tshirt while discussing what happened during the social on the weekend at the beer festival. If you would like to know maybe David can tell you.

With the legends that are Fay , Sallyann and Andy being our awesome walking crew they set off with litter pickers and bags to meet us at Meteor way.

The rest of us set off on a longer route to start Beating the streets.

We reconvened and began picking (and continued chatting) during which conversation turned to why Chris' Dj name is DJ Wolf Leg. I cannot say why here because it would literally blow your mind. But please feel free to ask Chris if you would like to know.

With bags full (and photos on slides taken) we made our way back to base, said our goodbyes and looked to see how we are doing on the Beat The Street app. Great is the answer.

Thanks all for coming and hope to see some of you at Parkrun this weekend and next Wednesday where Laurie will be the legendary run leader.

Run Happy

Rich

I can't really tell you what happened because it would appear I drank all the beer, walked into a lamppost, and got a taxi to the wrong house.
