So much to do and so little time!

First, the moving of the poles. We had to come together, socially distanced, to move some telegraph poles out of the way. These things were heavy! A combination of moments (thanks Jenny), lifting and when all else failed kicking were required to move these behemoths.

Next there was the moving of the fencing to protect people from falling branches after the fire damage. This was made even more devilishly tricky by the last two pieces not quite meeting at the top! A jiggle along the fence sorted this out though.

Finally there was litter picking and sweeping of leaves to make the place look nicer.

All this in an hour! Well done everyone, you are awesome 😊
