12 chic Goodgymmers catwalked their way to the Wood Green Traid to give them a hand in clearing their shop floor in preparation for the arrival of their Christmas range.

Fashionably Late

By the time we reached the doors of Wood Green Traid, the Traid team were in full flow and had cleared out most of the clothes from the shop floor.

We wasted no time and started packing away all the hangers, cleaning out the surfaces, and Rosa was asked to do the hoovering but seemed to break the vacuum cleaner instead just to get out of it. Tut-tut.

Our Goodgymmers fizzled with enthusiasm and before you could say vogue, we had helped the Traid team to get the shop ready for the new stock.

We waited a couple of minutes to see if they could use us for any other jobs, but they very gracefully sent us packing. Gramps crowded everyone into a dressing room for a selfie and then we said our goodbyes.

Having done a short run straight to the Traid from HQ, we did a cool 4k run once we left the shop.

All in all, that was a good night.

Join us this Sunday for a fun ol' school group session as we visit the Westbury Banks Nature Reserve. They have a myriad of fun tasks awaiting us. And we'll then go for some lunch afterwards to celebrate our wonderful Kapil who's trading the cold streets of London for warmer pastures <3

Ok, that's wrap.
