I went along to help Mrs P, who really loves her garden but struggles to stay on top of it because she's recovering from a stroke. My job was to give her flowerbed a bit of TLC. I dug and loosened the soil, took out roots and weeds, and applied a good helping of compost. Now it's ready to plant some bulbs later in the autumn. I also filled some planters with compost and have everything a good drink of water. Mrs P was very grateful. We chatted a bit, she told me about her life and recovery from the stroke, and I left. Looking forward to seeing her garden flourish!
