A Milestone Morning at the Goring Gap ๐Ÿงค๐ŸŽ‰

On a crisp January Sunday morning, our Walk & Talk took us to the beautiful Goring Gap โ€“ though sadly, beauty wasnโ€™t the first thing to catch our eye. Todayโ€™s session doubled as a very special celebration, marking GillGillybean incredible 300th Good Deed with GoodGym**! ๐ŸŽ‰

Turning out to celebrate (and get stuck in) were Belinda, John, Mel, Paul M, Paul W and Pepper the dog , Barbara, Ricky and myself , making it a proper community affair.

As we strolled and chatted, we quickly realised there was plenty of work to do. Rubbish was everywhere โ€“ strewn along the grass verges and scattered across the roads at this much-loved local spot. Gloves on and bags at the ready, we got to work, filling our bags to the brim and giving the Goring Gap the care it deserves. It was one of those satisfying clean-ups where teamwork really shines, even if the amount of litter was a bit disheartening.

With the last bag tied and we headed back to my housd for a well-earned warm-up. Hot drinks and sweet treats awaited us, with Nick expertly in charge of the coffee โ˜•๐Ÿฐ โ€“ the perfect way to round off a cold but cheerful morning. Whilst drinking coffee we presented Gill with an engraved glass to mark her milestone achievement. Cheers to all the good times and Congratulations!

Thanks to everyone for making this a meaningful, muddy-booted, heart-warming GoodGym Sunday. ๐Ÿ’›๐Ÿ’ช
