After a few months of hard work and great numbers we decided to do a social sessions this week!

As usual we met at the Basingstoke Sports & Social Club who have incredibly generously allowed us to use the their committee room for free all year. Then we went for a walk out and around the War Memorial Park before scurrying back once it started raining.

Once we were back at BSSC we went into the committee room and set up for our games night. Yeun & Tazmin both brought some board games to play and we decided to try some altered team games. We started with Articulate where to make it harder we combined it with charades, the highlight was definitely Yazid trying to make us guess "stream" which took at least 5 minutes.

We followed this with Scattergories where we decided to all work together to get the most possible words. I would like to formally admit that Charli was right and that a dormouse weighs significantly less than a pound.

Throughout all of this there were great conversations, snacks and a lot of laughs!

Thank you all for a great evening

I had a great time joining the Basingstoke Sports & Social Club for their Spring Clean. Was nice meeting everyone and we got a lot of painting done!

Thank you once again to the Social Club for allowing the use of their space each week

We changed it up last night and decided to do a walk and then planning session as we have been struggling to find sessions to do during the winter.

Tazmin & Charli had some excellent ideas I will follow up on and we learnt that Samantha knows everyone in the area, so will definitely lean on her connections!

Evelyn & I had a great session today assisting the Basingstoke Sports & Social Club! It was Evelyn's first ever GoodGym session and it was certainly a different one! We started by going for a 2.5km jog/walk chatting the whole way! Then we came back to the Social Club and were introduced to our nemesis for the day... The storeroom cupboard! And boy oh boy was it full (I am going to learn to take before photos), packed all the way up to the door with open bags, paint and loose sports equipment. We started by taking everything out (which took 35 minutes) then matching up the cricket pads (which took 15 minutes) and then filled up all the bags before refilling the store room in a much tidier fashion. The most fun thing we found was a box full of Christmas lights they didn't even know was there and the weirdest was definitely an exploded tub of vaseline which I found while picking a bag up..

Was a great session, super excited for next week which is going to be a really big session
