12 GG Yorkies met in the graveyard at St Stephen's church. This was our 2nd visit to tidy the footpath.
Steve joined us for his first community mission, even though he's a seasoned GG! Give him a big cheer!!!
The next bit of the path seemed even more overgrown, but with teamwork digging, pulling, lifting and carrying, it wasn't long before the stone and marble was exposed and the path completely clear.
We all made it home just as a massive thunderstorm swept across York!
