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.

It has been many sleeps since we were last at the American International Church's winter shelter. Google tells me it's been 238 sleeps. And yet yesterday felt so easy as we stepped back into our comfortable and warm winter routine.

Six of us - Andy, Gosia, Jackie, John, and Rose (and me) - started our evening (successfully) counting to 25, and we then wove our way through Bloomsbury's bustle and buzz, sharing stories all the way.

Arriving on an increasingly festive Tottenham Court Road, we picked up our remaining good-deeding crew (Ivar, Jack, Louise, Sarah, and Steve) and climbed down to a basement that's always a hubbub of positive activity on winter Wednesday nights.

The C4WS Homeless Project has been making a difference since 2006, and our task (making the evening's beds) was one part of a larger (and quite special) operation.

I had barely finished saying - 12 beds in the big room > 3 in the small room > 1 on the stage - when the sounds of camp beds a-sprining and duvets a-quilting filled our positive air.

It usually takes me 387 minutes to make a bed, but this special group assembled and dressed 16 beds in no more than 20.

With our bed-making completed, the group took their talents to the dining cabin, making swift work of creating a neat and tidy space for the evening meal.

Thanks so much, everyone, for your work and energy last night - it was wonderful to see you!!

Here's to next time!
