Joined by Andy the pack down of the Summer Fair was done and dusted in minimal time.

We cleared away our Bric-a-Brac stall and helped the computer repair shop to clear away their tech.

All the tables and chairs were put away in the cupboard and we were even given a cupcake treat to go off on our merry way.

Dave, Alice and I spent a couple of hours helping out at the Enable Ability Summer Fair this afternoon.

Dave was on the bric-a-brac stall, whilst Alice and I manned the tombola, lucky dip and the name the enormous dog game.

Our help was very much appreciated, and Alice also convinced Dave to donate to this great cause by having a turn on every stall going before we left!

The lone GG-er arrived at the community centre to help get the summer fair set up and running.

I got the Bric-a-Brac and repair shop tech sales tables ready. And made sure everyone was happy with their stalls ready to get the party started.

We helped Mathilde freshen up the beautiful planters and forecourts in and around Fawcett Road.

We litterpicked, removed the dead plants, planted some baby lavender, cosmos and carnations, then added freh soil, topped it off with mulch and then gave them a drink. With several bees and butterflies around us , delicious homemade apple cake and excellent company, it was a very enjoyable morning!

Superb efforts from everyone who took part in litter picks across Portsmouth and beyond today!

Mel and Vicki kicked things off nice and early with a pick at Alexandra Park, although Jane was actually first in with her pick last night! Julie received plenty of praise from passers by as she cleaned up by Lidl. Laura and her dog, Woody, completed an early morning beach clean. It seems Woody was disappointed he didn't find any snacks, only food wrappers!

We've had a trolley retrieved from the chalk cliffs of Paulsgrove by Lucy and Duncan, a beach clean in Bracklesham with an accompanying sea dip for Judy and Val and a whopping 16 mile run with a cemetery litter pick by Andy!

Nia and baby Zoe headed to Southampton Common for their pick, whilst Dave and I took a stroll through Sherwood Forest to burn off a very unnecessary sundae!

Ness and Sinéad focused on the shoreline for their picks at Fort Cumberland and Langstone Harbour respectively.

We'll be back to normal next week with a visit to the You Trust in North End for some painting and decorating. Hopefully see you in person then!
