On a cold winter night, the Magnificent Seven helped Mayfield Community Trust volunteers by clearing the footpath. The path is a popular route, so we needed to scrape off the leaves to make sure it wasn't a trip hazard.

Super keen Egg and I arrived early and were stuck in straight away. Soon after everyone arrived and got straight to work. The "pleasant" sound of rakes scraping the gravel could be heard as everyone was hard at work. Luckily for GoodGym, the Mayfield Trust are a very active volunteer group so the path was well maintained and there was little work to do!

After 45 minutes of hard graft (well, just graft) we finished the task and were treated to mince pies with icing...MINCE PIES WITH ICING. Who knew these existed!
