A half-day session due to the meeting in the afternoon.
Richard and Gerald worked on drainage issues on a couple of paths in Nutclough, Hebden Bridge.
Fred and Paul put in some more steps on the path at the bottom of Oakville Road, Charlestown.
Frank H and Graham repaired a stile and resurrected two sagging finger posts in Cragg Vale.
Dick bagged up the slats for the Bell House boardwalks
Rich, Bernard and Stuart surveyed a possible re-route of the riverside path in Cragg Vale. Whilst the survey was being written up, Stuart decided to clear the path down to Cragg Spa.

'Old man, old man
Sitting on a stile
How do you know which way to go
And why is it you smile?'
(The Traveller:- Raymond Wilson 1987)
Actually we were two (youngish) old men repairing a stile and we knew exactly which way to go because of the finger post. We were smiling because it was a sunny day and (for once) the task was straightforward.

| Repaired stile. |
 |
| Frank praying for a JCB!. |
 |
| No JCB available! . . . so it has to be the heavy bar. |
 |
| The signpost (slightly truncated) now firmly in place. |
 |
| More of the same (with even more truncation!) for a damaged sign further along the road. |
