Another fun afternoon and evening at FoodCycle today - and it was Faith's first time helping at this project. We hope she enjoyed the session as much as the three regulars did.
Gill was on the early shift as she had helped with the food collection and was on hand to open up the hall and get things started. With lots of part baked bread and frozen pastry she started on prepping the crostini for some crispy bruschetta and then got busy rolling out the pastry for 5 large quiches.
Next on the scene was Martin, who joined in the kitchen team alongside the other FoodCycle regulars and there was soon a hive of industry to prepare the tomatoes and salad for the starter, and the roasted veg for the couscous accompaniment to the quiche.
Omar, who had answered a late call for additional volunteers to host the session arrived, and was a whiz at serving the volunteers with pre-service fruit snacks before getting joining the other hosts with serving our guests and clearing up afterwards.
Finally, Faith arrived and was soon elbow deep in a sink full of suds as she had offered to take on the vital role of pot washer today, and was an absolute godsend as she cleaned up the cooking posts and all the dishes and cutlery from the meal. "It was my first time at FoodCycle and I really enjoyed it." she said.
There was lots of positive feedback again from the guests who really enjoyed the meal. Well done team. Another fabulous meal.

A great turn out from the Goodgym Massive to support the cooking and feasting at the Shri Guru Ravidass Sangat temple.
Everyone got stuck in welcoming the other groups attending; cooking, preparing, serving and cleaning up, helping to bring different community groups together and learn dome culinary skills too!
We also celebrated with the legend that is Martin as he completed his 500th Goodgym task earlier in the evening...a hats off to a monster milestone!
A fantastic feast served up with extra portions to take home...yum!

This week our Group Run took us up the hill to the sunny Ferndale Leisure Gardens, an allotment space that had been underused for some time and needs the old plots clearing out of all the old junk collected by past tenants to make inviting open spaces ready for new tenants.
In this visit we tackled a tough patch that we couldn't deal with last time. There was a pile of something buried under thick brambles. This time we brought some clippers to cut away the bramble and gain access. It was a pile of corrugated metal roof panels, old windows and wooden pallets among other random buckets and broken spades and old hose pipe.
With seven of us on the case we managed to extract all the junk and carry it up the hill to the entrance gate and sorted it into piles of wood, plastic and metal which will be collected for recycling.
We'll be back here again in a few weeks because theres plenty more plots that need clearing out!

Mopping floors, vacuuming carpets, cleaning out fridges, cupboards (inside and out) and getting low down and dirty scrubbing behind the cooking stations.
