We had a bit of an unusual session this week, stretching our creative muscles rather than our physical ones. I think this was very much appreciated in the sudden cold snap - great numbers tonight!

Dave and Sinéad kept to Gym in GoodGym for us, with a couple of laps of the churchyard before joining us in the community centre to get creating.

We had beautiful table pieces, wreaths, orange peel tree hangings, hand-decorated garlands and some very intricate and mathematical giant baubles. Wilson showed true determination, and with the help of Maxine and baby Margaux completed their challenge! Katie and Vicki were another dream team, producing another masterpiece.

Special thanks to Judy for her creativity, resources and epic foraging skills for providing us with such a lovely task this evening. It was truly wonderful!

We welcomed Veronika to her first Group Run this evening - thank you for joining us! Luckily she didn't have too many names to learn, as we had Double Dave and Double Katie tonight!

Thanks to Katie for finding us a last minute task for us - weeding by head-torch wasn't the easiest task, but from the before and after photos you can see we made a big impact!

Our team was small but mighty this evening, joined by the legendary Barb for a night of brass polishing.

We'd made great inroads with the cleaning last week, but with the aid of toothbrushes and the creatively named "Pink Stuff" even in the most intricate portions of the brass knuckles came up a treat I even polished so hard I made a hole in my rubber gloves!

Finishing off with a Brasso rub-down, we got the task finished just as the clock struck 7.30pm - timed to perfection.

I set to work with the help of my tribe we found small plastics and lollysticks as well as paper and wrapper. We didn't find a sock though so does it even count??

After a rather soggy run down, Barbara soon set us to work up in the Lady's Gallery. Memories of first jobs and childhood chores were brought back with the scents of Brasso and Barkeeper's Friend. It took us a little while to master our pole-polishing technique, interestingly the men-folk seemed to get the hang of it quicker! 😆

Interesting Facts: 50% of the team this evening are left handed. 66% share their name with another attendee. 100% of these facts may not actually be interesting.

Never has a task prompted so much innuendo, so if you're up to the challenge of coming up with more, we'll be back next week to finish off! 😉
