Thanks for the tip-off Howard. It was an amazing turn-out, 19 volunteers! So many in fact that poor Mr Sampson had to do a double run in the minibus. We got lots of scrub cleared at Whinless Down and a raging bonfire. Of course yours truly got caught in a gust of wind and got singed...oh well. My own fault.
Pictures should be following soon.
