Thursday 6:15pm is GoodGym Windsor Night! ๐๐โโ๏ธ๐๐ปโโ๏ธ
Tonight we were back helping Age Concern at The Spencer Denney Centre painting the walls in the lobby and doing a bit in the garden.
Who stole summer? Gimmie, Gimmie, Gimmie ๐ถ us some sunshine please! Itโs was a grim day and rain was due so we opted in our group chat vote for painting indoors.
We all met at the centre tonight (some walked or by car)and while waiting for everyone to join we played with the baseball in a circle not sure what the name of the game ๐ถ was. Still it kept us entertained.
Task owner Rachel had the brushes and paint at the ready and showed us what needed doing.
Special welcome to Nic for her first Windsor ๐Thursday evening session ๐๐ป and Didem has now completed 10 good deeds with today being her 11th so well done Didem. ๐คฉ
The crew tonight were Helen, Marilyn, Natalia, Jen, Sue, Nic, Caroline , Didem and Mandy.
We cleared the lobby area, got set up with dust cloths, chose our preferred brushes and a section of wall.
ABBA was Didemโs choice of tunes tonight although we did seem to get take a chance on me ๐ถ on repeat ๐คฃ but thank you for the music ๐ถ anyway!
Sue and Marilyn decided to be brave and did some garden tidying instead of painting and cleaned the garden furniture in case the sun does ever decide to show itself ๐๐ป and the guests can sit outside.
The others literally finished up all the paint suppliesโฆ Mumma Mia ๐ถ ! So then one buy one after tidying up and washing brushes in the Waterloo ๐ถ we all ended up in the garden anyway โฆ so much for the vote ๐คฃ still it wasnโt too bad. Most of the rain was coming off the leaves of the tree in the wind.
Not letting anyone go early Mandy put on a quick 10 min Joe Wicks fitness video and we had a go at what we could without a mat.
Then it was time to do our group photoโฆ sorry I missed Helen in this ๐ฅฒ then did our Windsor curtsy and say our goodbyes.
Thank you all so much for coming lovely to see you all and some new faces these last couple of weeks ๐
