Our leafleting task turned out to be a letter delivery task, asking local residents to nominate inspiring individuals for Stephen Morgan's annual award ceremony.

Portsmouth GoodGym have previously won an award through the programme and we proved we were worthy winners by smashing out a whole lot of leaflets in our hour long session this evening.

It turns out that leafleting is much more fun with friends, and the time and streets flew by. We also discovered Val's walking origami skills, and that Judy could probably represent Team GB in the Leafleting Olympics. She has missed her calling as a postie!

The arrival of the Pantry's Rapid Racking system as well as an IKEA delivery today meant that assembling furniture took precedence over the painting we were expecting.

We also had a bit of an Upstairs / Downstairs system going on, with Katie and Harry running point in the IKEA assembly, whilst Katie, Dave and Jen were up in the offices with the Racking.

Mallets, screwdrivers, allen keys and some unusual tubing were wielded and in just over an hour we'd assembled four storage racks, a Kallax unit and two sofas. Nice effort, everyone!

My goodness, our task this evening was much more of a work out than we had anticipated!

The task was as advertised - unscrewing some fittings from the Fratton Pantry walls - however the screws were not giving up without a fight!

We took it in turns to use the "good" screwdriver, eventually managing to remove about 50% of the panels. We definitely got to take out the frustrations of our days on the walls! It was certainly a challenge, but as always GoodGym rose to it. Well done everyone!

GoodGym turned out in dribs and drabs today, but certainly made an impact on the running of the Fratton Family Festival.

Jen and Dave were first on the scene, and helped put up billboards, signage and gazebos. Their final task was to assemble a homemade banner for Fratton Together and get it mounted on their gazebo. Jen's retro knowledge of knots (clove hitch, anyone) helped get the banner hung up beautifully and with an easy mechanism to get it down again at the end of the day.

Next to the relay was Jane who finished the set up with the Fratton Together squad. She reported a good atmosphere, with the tempting smells from the food stalls, the music and everyone was happy. She then set out the volunteers' secret lunch area (behind a screen in the church) and helped mostly at the Food Pantry stall.

The anchor leg of GoodGym support came from Tracey, who helped with getting the area tidy towards the end of the day. Nice work, everyone!
