The day of the Dig!

The day finally arrived and was it a day! The sun was out and as Joe and Dan said "it was like a summer's day in Newcastle"! In fact once we got digging the jackets started coming off. All except Simon but he did his bit none the less.

Start of the day

The day started off with Dave bending the fork within the first five minutes. It progressed to a polite round of who could find the longest and largest root. But once Dan had found a flag stone and sleepy Zak came along, the competition became fierce. The jury is still out on who found the largest, longest or the heaviest stone. In the meantime, young Femi had decided to rebuild Stone Henge with the multiple of bricks that Colin kept unearthing!

That's a wrap folks

Ok one more!

 All in all it was a great day for all who could make it, so thanks to everyone (Colin, Carolyn, Femi, Dave, Simon, Dan, Joe, Zak and Yuen Yee).
