Nick & Gosia helped Mr K with doing some rearrangements in his apartament 🏠.

Winter is defo getting closer and in anticipation of that we were both wearing warm coats 🧥, gloves 🧤 and winter hats 🧢. Going out today not really recommended 😆☃️.

The place wasn't that easy to find 🗺 but we did arrive at Mr K's doors at 12 on the dot. As instructed, Nick called him directly on his mobile phone 📞 to let him know we arrived (the intercom wasn't working). Then we were given few more instructions on how to get to the flat.

After welcoming us at the door, Mr K explained us the task. We were supposed to swap the place for two chairs/armchairs 💺. An armchair from a studio should be placed in the bedroom, while an office chair from the bedroom should go to the studio.

It was a fairly straightforward task and we managed to sort it out very quickly. Although there was a bit of clutter around we gracefully 🩰💃🕺 and successfully navigated through it.

After completion we stopped for a little chat with Mr K, when he mentioned he might need some help in arranging a charity pick up for some of his clothes 👕👖.

We left the apartament after around 20 mins. Mr K seemed to be happy with the outcome and thanked us for the help.

As Old Spike filled up with GoodGymer's, it signaled it was time to head out from the warmth and into the cold. There was just time for a reminder about the Christmas Party before we set off (11th December - 20:15 - Voodoo Rays)!

On arrival, the task was clear, we needed to clean all the toys to make sure they're clean for when they children play with them! Armed with the tools (soapy/dettol water and some clothes) the team set about cleaning every toy in sight. Even the sofas didn't escape a thorough clean, which is good because they needed a wipe down too!

A team of 4 went to sort the craft supplies, throwing out dried up pens, sharpening pencils and making sure everything was in a more organised order.

With not long to go and a lot of plastic balls still to clean and all the toys to get back into the cupboard, everyone stepped in to get the last bits done!

After a quick photoshoot and goodbye to task owner Valentina, it was time to head back to Old Spike which had the promise of Athletic Brewing beers.

Well done to everyone for tackling the 6km run with enthusiasm and also thanks to Daryl for leading us a much nicer route than I had planned!

A great community mission with friendly volunteers. We started the task by unloading a delivery and then got to work sorting and refilling food items for the community shop. Heart warming to see the diversity of food donated, and the hard work that goes in to make this community resource a success. Not only are they on a mission to reduce food waste, but also plastic waste. From refilling grain containers, to peeling back the spring onions to make them shop suitable - this task has a good amount of opportunities to get hands on, and make a difference.

For this week’s group run we mixed things up by taking a new route to our monthly session at Thorlands. From Old Spike Cafe, we set off towards Camberwell Grove via Warwick Gardens. We then went through an alley to Love Walk and on to Thorlands from there.

Back in the Community Garden this week. We were picking up from where Lambeth left off the previous night and what we started last month. This involved laying down cardboard overlapped (to make it harder for the foxes to rip up). Before we got to work spreading mulch on top of the cardboard. Big kudos to Nelly who did a great job picking up the litter that had accumulated in the area.

Simon sends thanks for our work! We’ll see Simon again next month when we'll be moving logs to create seating areas in the Community Garden.

Clothes, children's toys, etc. We put everything together and hung it on a hanger.

Despite being a cold morning, a great number of families gathered this morning for the Junior Parkrun @ Peckham Rye Park. Thank you to the oragnisers and all volunteers.
