It “wood” really help

2 GoodGymers made their way to help an isolated older person in Ealing.

It was a glorious sunny day when Jonathan and I made our way to Acton to help Hank move some furniture to create space for his fathers hospital bed in the front room.

I arrived first on foot closely followed by Jonathan on his bike. Hank was a lovey friendly man with lots of chit chat and his equally adorable cat Sylverster who was there to oversee the task.

It didn’t take long to move the sofa armchairs and dining room furniture to create the space we needed.

We then enjoyed hearing and seeing all the fabulous pieces thank Hank the handyman had made using leftover wood. One very talented man ( the seat you see us sitting on with sylvester is one of his pieces)

A few Billy Connolly jokes later and we were on our way.
