We were back at Little Edi again this week to finish the painting we started last week. Five GoodGymers met at HQ and ran down together. Andy got a gold star for picking up more litter picking bags for our store room, and he won the Halloween costume competition (by being the only one to wear any).

Tess from Little Edi met us and showed us the where everything was. There were two bits to do: finishing the blue wall from last week, and a fresh coat of white in the men's toilet.

Sean got masking tape down in the toilet so that Laurie and me could start painting, and Andy, Rich and Sean went to do the wall.

It was a bit cramped in the toilet but we got it done, up to head height anyway. We thought we'd need the stepladder to reach the top, but it turns out you don't need a stepladder when you have a Sean who is tall enough to reach the ceiling.

When we finished, Andy had already washed the brushes, and Rich put all the stuff away.

There was time for a group photo, and Tess told us a bit about the excellent work they do to support local children, and showed us the food bank supplies they have to help families in need.

Great job everyone. Next week we are folding charity leaflets in the pub 🍻

On what was a very rainy day, the weather gods knew the drill and made sure it had stopped by the time Me, Andy and Fiona met outside the gym, because... it never rains on goodgym 🥰

We ran off into the dusk and were joined by Leah along the way towards Little Edi where we would be doing a spot of painting. As we arrived Fay and Sallyann had already arrived and got ourselves organised into two groups. Me,Andy and Leah painted the wall a lovely shade of blue. And Fay,Sallyann and Fiona painted the hallway, door and toilet wall a brilliant shade of white.

Covering most of the walls (and Leah's hands) we gathered the tins of paint and brushes and rollers and Andy showed his domesticated skills at the sink by washing the paint out of all of them. Leaving them on the side to dry we left , after i remembered to take a group photo, and made our way back home for a well deserved dinner/tea/snack/cocktail.

Well done everyone

We'll be back at Little Edi next week to continue our painting and hopefully back again over the winter to help with other bits and pieces they need doing.

Thanks for coming all and......

Run Happy

Rich
