Despite the heat 5 of us helped to rescue some of the thirsty plants at Holgate Community Garden which had been struggling with the heat. Becca, Libby, Ellie and Laura cleared as many of the dead plants out of the beds as possible so it was clearer what needed watering. David went to and fro with the wheelbarrow filling up watering cans and buckets to water as many of the more fragile surviving plants as possible. It was hot!

Five fabulous York GGers met back at West Bank Park to undo (or redo?) the good work of the morning. Gazebos were quickly dismantled, bagged, barrowed & stored as were many tables & chairs. Excellent & speedy team work which earnt much gratitude from the organisers.

Seven select York GGers and 2 dogs listened to & actually followed the Organisers instructions. We welcomed newcomer Libby who set too with gusto with team gazebo. Amazing effort on a not so lazy Sunday morning. 1 large & 3 regular gazebos were speedily erected, whilst many chairs and tables and water weights were carried & barrowed across the park. The organisers were delighted at our efficiency in helping get the park ready for the annual fayre. Thankyou everyone.

We are becoming regulars here and its always a nice task at the bowls club. always assured of a friendly welcome and thanks galore. With 5 of us hot footing from the clothes swap we were joined by Ben and Ellie. With Pete on barrow duties the other 6 took up the shovels and soon made short work down the side of the access rd. No cake but the home made tea loaf was delicious....
