Having gorged ourselves on pizza and beer last weekend for our Christmas social, this week we thought we'd get out to do a little more good before gorging ourselves on more food over the Christmas period. We were raising money for the Bexley and Greenwich Community Hospice who gave us some santa suits for the occassion. We've all scurried these away in our cupboards ready for the next time they're needed - you never know when a Santa emergency might occur.

After a stressful moment getting the suits on and our beards blowing across the university campus, we did a warm up of duck duck goose, which efficiently tore a hole right through the crotch of most of our suits. Never mind, it just made us more relatable.

Our task for the evening was a photo scavenger hunt and so we split into two teams and spent a while running about Greenwich, spreading some joy and being asked for photos with the lovely public, and asking for pictures in return

These featured the following:

  • Santas pose in pairs their best passionate tango moves frozen in time
  • Santas blending in with their surroundings
  • Take a scenic picture which santa is photo bombing
  • Santa delivering presents
  • Santas striking a yoga pose
  • Santas doing a mandem handshake

Both teams did a cracking job and the worthy winners voted on in our group whatsapp. No hard feelings guys.

And as if it wasn't enough to be in the winning team, special congratulations to Geraldine on 50 good deeds!

Money raised for a great cause, thank you all. Merry Christmas and see you in January :)
