Massive shout-out and big props to Nick who joined the 100 club tonight. That's a lot of time doing stuff to help out community projects that need a hand. Nick has been a GG Bromley member as long as I have and I'm so pleased he's in the team. Nick gets a fresh πŸ’― tee with wings. πŸ¦… Woooop!

Right, let's see how many Nick puns we can squeeze into a run report! Sorry in advance...

All in the nick of time...

Tonight we were helping out Bromley Borough Food Bank. They have a unit in the Glades for people to donate. It was looking a little shabby so our job was to add a lick of paint to freshen it up.

Nicksand

We divided up the initial tasks of sanding, taping and laying down bin bags to protect the floor in preparation for the paint.

Another nick in the wall

There were plenty of little sticky bits on the wall and some paint coming off in places but it was all looking much cleaner before...

Nick 'n' mix

Paint mixing time! We were each equipped with brushes and rollers and got to work high and low.

Another Nick of paint

We might need to go back to add another layer but it definitely looked way better when we left.

Nice work team!
