We are back at Ealing Soup Kitchen after quite some time. Kash was in her Clark Kent disguise as I went past the queue outside the Salvation Army. Then, the next minute she was gone and came back with her GG suit.

Kash took the food delivery duty while I was in the Men's section. Toothpaste was the crowd favourite today in the toiletries section. Kash soon joined the Men's section and eventually took over the Women's clothing.

Not the red razor please. Red is for ladies - male client

Can I have a pink toothbrush? - female client

We had clients coming at regular intervals and they kept us busy till 7:45. Then we started wrapping up. We also had a few bags of donations today. This made the storage full and we had to leave a few bags outside the cupboards.

After the wrapup, we had an interesting photoshoot where were asked to enact the Charlie's Angels.

Despite the short notice change in task, six GoodGymers made their way to Walpole park, to help Ealing Park Rangers fighting back against the vicious bramble growths around the park!

Sevan, Paul, Madhan and Christos met at The Rickyard, with Kash getting an early start on acquiring the necessary tools, supplies and trolley to demolish this latest area of brambles. The team then made their way towards the South entrance of the park, meeting up with Kate at the newest site for clearing up, to help with the safety around the park.

But first, Madhan celebrated an incredible achievement of 300 good deeds, and today’s was a fitting task for someone with such a level of GoodGym experience, in preparing to battle this beast of brambles!

Picking up our shears and loppers, the team set to work on the brambles, leaving nothing in our wake. Brambles were chopped and tackled from the bottom, dragged out and piled onto the trolley for carting off to the waste pile.

With the blackberries starting to ripen amongst the brambles, a few GoodGymers were courageous enough to try these out - apparently these are still a little on the sour side from the taste tests!

Another large bramble patch was destroyed, opening up the surrounding paths and creating a safer area for pedestrians.
