Frosty Fingers to Green Fingers
2 GoodGymers made their way to help an isolated older person in Greenwich.
- Saturday, 25th of November 2017
Here's what Mr J of SE7 had to say about the mission:
thanks for sending the two runners this weekend. They were great, swept up for me, and they were both lovely. I offered them a hot drink, but said they would just get on with the garden. Will be ringing GoodGym again when I need some help.
Two GG Greenwich pals were up an at them on a chilly Saturday morning Mission to help Mr J tidy up his Veranda.
After meeting at the end of the road ‘both admiting to being a little under dressed for the morning temperatures We turned our sat nav heads on ‘or at least Vickie did, Gareth was more interested in looking for verandas instead of door numbers’ & set about finding Mr J House! After turning down the wrong street, pressing a few number buzzers then proceeding to the wrong floor we were meet by Mr J in his lobby, “although it has to be mentioned that Gareth walked straight passed him on the first ogasion probably because he was still looking for Verandas”.
After the pleasantries were completed and the tools dished out we set about having a good old tidy up, Vickie chief snipper and Gareth Captain hand raker.
Main topic of conversation between the pair of us was running and Vickies 2018 Ultra Marathon Callander made Gareths Marathon Callander look like a walk in the park so good luck Vickie!
In no time at all we had finished with Mr J extremely greatful.
A job well done! But next time Gareth leave the directions to the orienteerer!
