4 goodgymers shook off their weary heads after Mitch and Amy's party and faced the heat to shift sleepers and barkchip for Scarcroft allotments. Impressive strength was shown lifting the sleepers in 2s and we proved we aren't as thick as two planks by using a door and broom to move the woodchip when rakes were in short supply! it was hot work but we quickly made a big difference - well done everyone!
