What a lovely day for a spot of shoveling woodchip in Valentine's Park!

This mission consisted of 3 tasks: * Break cardboard up and put in on the path * Move bark from one area to get it on to the path * Finally move logs to either go along the path or around the social area.

As there were 5 of us, we split into two teams, one filling up the wheelbarrow with bark while the other team distributed it along the path, whilst the team filling the wheel barrow with bark the other team broke up some cardboard and laid it across the path.

Once all the bark and cardboard was placed, the logs got pulled into position - this did result in some serious nettle stinging when we pulled out the logs from their 'hidden' park position, some got put into place with the wheelbarrow and the rest with our own strength grrrrr.
