Started a bit of voluntary work for the local food bank distribution centre today.
I was a bit late arriving....18 months late to be precise. Don't think anyone will remember but I got a 'placement' there in Feb 2016 and on the day I was due to start I had a flaming major panic attack and didn't make it past my street. Anyway, long story short, made it this time and quiet enjoyed it. Was hoping to be on the delivery van but ended up in the packing warehouse and working alongside a few 'special needs' guys. (learning disabled, downs syndrome etc).
Such lovely people to be with and work with. Had more of a laugh and joke with these guys than Ive had for a long time with anyone else.
