Reading is a novel idea!

This evening we were helping Jillian at The Global Trust Bookstore to sort through the piles of donated books.
Before setting off from Salt Hill Park we welcomed Urmila on her first GoodGym session - a very warm welcome!
With Pam, Keith and Urmila walking the 1 mile distance, they set off whilst Jean and I carried on with the warm up.
Soon we had set off too. Jean was on fire tonight! I told her to set the pace and run at her pace then walk whenever she wanted to... we ran nearly all the way! Great to have running Jean back
Not all books are created sequel
Our tasks were to just sort out the books. But the books were everywhere so we were bound to get a little confused.
I helped to work out the sub tasks with task owner Jillian and we set Jean and Keith the naughty corner to sort out the fact from the fictions!
They did a remarkable job clearing out the corner into some kind of order!
Once upon a time
Kam and Pam had the job of sorting out the kiddies corner. Kam was on all the reference books whilst Pam had the pre schoolers!
Urmila and I came down to help after an aborted clothes sorting task!
We soon had crates of books in the correct piles
Great job all round everyone!
