We destroyed our decking and it's currently a middle hole in the ground.  Hopefully to be fixed tomorrow.  One set of toilets repainted and another hopefully tomorrow. Sightscreens,  nets,  benches/fences repainted.  Had approx 15 down at one point,  so a good attendance.  Back tomorrow for another long day of work.

Had ours today went to our second ground ( 3rd and 4Th team ) which has   the best wicket only 4 of us there and the youngest was 65 completed the work started last Wednesday repaired the showers repaired the score box as it was broken in to cleaned the umpires room and litter picked 4 black bags of rubbish of the ground fill the holes left by foxes with loam cleaned the kitchen and fridges  washed the crocks. Fitted new asp  and lock to the  ladies toilet door  following vandalism.

We probably had 50 or 60 people during the day to help out. Good to see some familiar faces and catch up. A variety of jobs complete including painting, getting the nets set up, covers ready etc. The bacon rolls and cake were top notch too.
