This was apparently a near record breaking day as far as temperatures go, this scorching summer showing no signs of easing off. It actually reminds me of being on holiday as a child when it's this warm, tugging gently on the threads of the past, images of me running across a beach in the south of France aged ten and full of possibilities.

So I was in a great mood when I arrived at St John's Court, a sheltered home for over a hundred residents, to be greeted by Peta and Anne and instructed on what help they needed for this visit.

We were back out where we had been last time, at the front entrance but this time trimming bushes and tidying up the beds to make the front of house look great.

GoodGymmers Ruth, Emily, Kam and Meyrick were in superb form as usual and we made an enormous contribution to this piece of work in the short time we had.

We are due back there again in September for anyone interested, this is one of our great repeat missions and helps improve the lives of a great many people.
