November's clothes swap was busy but luckily we had a ridiculous amount of GGs out with 8 goodgymmers heloing ensure things went smoothly.

It was Gemma's second task after doing her first at Planet Food and she put in a sterling effort getting stuff onto hangers with Kirsty whilst the rest of us concentrated on getting the clothes out.

Excellent fun as always.

They say news travels fast, and that's especially true when its being delivered by a bunch of keen GoodGym Yorkies on a Monday night group run 💨

Tonight we gave a warm welcome to newcomer Thet and also celebrated Kirsty being named our GG Yorkie of the month for October after an epic 7 good deeds and a total of 25 since joining in the summer. Well done Kirsty! And thank you to Michael for putting the frame together whilst Ed stalled for time!

It was then off to the task with Stef walking (and unfortunately never to be seen again!), Vicky and Babs backmarking and Ed leading the run out. We then met up with Tracey from the Groves Association before pairing up and heading out to deliver some leaflets.

This definitely wasn't Claire's first rodeo as she had come with a trusty wooden spoon to help her open letterboxes! And whilst I'm not entirely sure what happened in each group I can only imagine they all had an excellent time and thoroughly enjoyed themselves.

Given how long we've waited for people to return in the past, the teams were given a slightly earlier time to meet back, which seemed to do the trick as pretty much everyone was back on time and there were no frantic phone calls being made to missing teams!

After a quick photo we then headed back to the Ackhorne through the method of Indian file running, with the person at the back continuously sprinting to the front. A great speed workout complete with some added hazards of cars, bollards, gates and curbs! But we all made it back safely, and even heard from the missing Stef, who still gets a good deed for showing up and attempting to find us. (Sorry Stef!)

... perhaps by joining Goodgym? Two of us went along to help out at Tang Hall Library this month, getting the books out ready for the half-term holiday. We were delighted to discover a book entitled "How to do good", although neither of us bought it - since we already have the answer!

No task forcer was available today but this didn't stop three dedicated goodgymmers from helping with the planet food tidy up. Thank you!
