Ivy lotta vines to pull down
3 GoodGymers made their way to help an isolated older person in Southwark.
- Saturday, 10th of February 2018
Matt, Chris and I met at Ms L's this morning for some gardening. I had been to Ms L's twice before so knew the ropes when we arrived!
Her neighbour had requested Ms L remove the vines that were growing over his side of the fence. We got started on the mission, with Chris and Matt making quick work of the offending vines.
While this was in progress, the neighbour appeared and asked us to remove some ivy that was growing over the wall. We tore this down as well - very satisfying!
While swapping travel stories and advice we filled up all of the bags provided for us by Ms L and uncovered more and more of her beautiful walled garden. Then, after a cuppa and a cake or two, we headed on our way.
