Today we all pitched in to try and tidy up the back garden. It has been really junky looking with the downed trees and archway, plus all the leaves which have fallen and didn't get raked up.
Turns out that the troops are not very good rakers, but they ARE good - nay, great! - at wheelbarrowing. So as Rhodri kept the fire going to burn some of the branches, I raked and the troops enthusiastically wheeled their barrows full of leaves to the compost pile.
We said that if they worked really hard until 3pm, they would get a nice surprise. The surprise turned out to be going over to Bruno's house to play on his X-BOX for a couple of hours. Good times!
