Frequent Flyer

Monday 8th September

Written by Kim

Our task for this evening was to deliver as many flyers as we could for the over 60's dance classes at Trinity Laban. The group gathered at Glass Mill where we spread out the leaflets between bags and also traded hats!

With most of the group running to Deptford, myself and Marta walked and met the group mid-flyering. We spread out across the estate and I delivered some flyers to Trinity Laban reception to spread the word as much as possible.

It's quite difficult to take photos at a flyering tasks and also to keep an eye on where everyone is but we all managed to safely regroup and head for burgers!

Well done to everyone that ran the big half!

Using My Loaf

Friday 12th September

Written by Lewisham runner

I’ve always had problems getting the lovely Ms Y’s loaf of choice from the Co Op, so today I stopped at the Sainsbury’s Local by the station and they had plenty. The rest of the shop was straightforward and at her local Co-op.

Half the transport to the ball

Friday 12th September

Written by Lewisham runner

As usual there was pumpkin on the lovely Mr J’s shopping list, alas the six white mice weren’t needed. So neither he nor me will be off to the Prince’s Ball. It was a pretty standard shop today, just lots of it.

Service with a Smile

Thursday 11th September

Written by Lewisham runner

It was the first time that I had shopped for Ms S who lives just round the corner from me. I was welcomed with a happy smile and her neatly written list was ready, but we had a chat before I went out. I spent most of the time in Sainsbury’s on the phone with her, checking pack sizes and substitutions. She was delighted with the purchases.

Man Without Van

Wednesday 10th September

Written by Lewisham runner

At one level a straightforward removal job for the lovely Ms L - taking things out of a cabinet, dispersing them around her flat (mainly on top of her kitchen cupboards) to enable a wall to be re-plastered. The plasterer was meant to follow after me …. but didn’t.

Ms L’s landlord’s contractor had messed things up so there was no job booked. Ms L rang up their Customer Service Centre but didn’t seem to be getting anywhere. So I offered to speak to them for her, I used to work for her landlord and recognised the voice of the person she was speaking to. Everything was just about sorted out and Ms L will get a call tomorrow confirming the date and time and when the wall would be painted once the plaster had dried out. I left some notes for Ms L to remind her what was happening.

Didn’t take any photos there, so a soggy park on the run home.

Doing a Quickstep

Wednesday 10th September

Written by Lewisham runner

Monday’s Group Run had been delivering leaflets for some free music and dance workshops for the over 60s at Trinity Laban in Deptford. There were quite a lot of leaflets left so I did an early quickstep delivery round to beat the tradesman button cut offs on several blocks. I then waltzed around the blocks without entry systems and saw a fox trot past as I waited for the bus home.
