7 GG Yorkies headed to Scarcroft Allotments to get twiggy with it and remove lots of branches and logs from a couple of allotments, moving them into neat piles by the entrance. We split into two teams and set to work, one team dragging big twiggy branches whilst the other filled wheelbarrows with increasingly wibbly wobbly piles of logs. In no time at all, all types of stick-shaped objects had been relocated and our job was done!

As we set off into the evening, we discussed a race that has GoodGym's name all over it - the Cakeathon. Better start training immediately! http://www.saxon-shore.com/cakeathon_yorkshire/

It was also Huw's 50th and Becky's 100th task tonight so lots of cheers for them please!
