Wed 18th April 2007 - Golden Hill Fort.

This week we were back out into the wilderness of the West Wight - at Golden Hill Fort. The task was to lay more crushed limestone to improve the many footpaths in the area, a job that we are becoming VERY familiar with ....! The rangers had been so suprised by the speed at which we completed a similar task last week, that they decided to push us that little bit further this time. They had pre-delivered 3 piles of limestone (each at 2 tonnes!) - not only did we manage to do this but they had to get a further supply from the adjacent building suppliers...... well done Green Gymers - we won! In addition to all the shovelling and wheelbarrowing, part of the team were involved in cutting back the undergrowth to make the pathways more accessable.
The weather was once again wonderful - more like mid summer that spring.... fingers crossed that it stays that way.
