Twelve GoodGymmers arrived soaked from their task at the cemetery to tackle the overgrown buddleia behind Fulford Social Hall. Like locusts they managed the task with incredible enthusiasm and panache! In 20 minutes they had accomplished more than the Parish Councillors could have hoped for.

Next Saturday 17th at 1pm we'll be shredding it all, leaving a completely renewed patio for Fulford Hall.

Today a hardy bunch met Clive at York Cemetery to do some raking

They have a Victorian infant grave area where 16000 crocuses were planted. They needed the area raked of leaves and twigs to make way for these come spring.

Due to the bumper turnout of volunteers, the task was completed in half the time so many headed off to make an earlier start on the 5th and final task of super Sunday.

This was the third task of the day for some people and quite likely the wettest. Those of us that had done the second task reluctantly left the café and after a short run / cycle were greeted with some much drier reinforcements.

We didn't let the rain stop the fun. Nor in J's case, proximity to even more water without any kind of safety barrier.

After the concrete banking was cleared of weeds, vegetation and moss (and we'd destroyed one of the builders sacks), we set off to the next task slightly warmer but a lot wetter.
