After the scheduled mission was postponed our friends st Mencap stepped in and let us help tidy the garden and paved area, thanks to Michelle for hosting us at short notice. It was fab to see some of the crowd again and lovely to see Jazzy and Rushath joining us. Just when i thought my pulling days were over there we are getting stuck in and with a lot of bending tugging and jiggiling the weeds were no more.All were busy sweeping and collecting the leftovers to the compost heap whilst michelle gave the moss and grass a hair cut as the back of the mower had gone awol. Arlo our furry helper decided he liked taking the weeds out of the bag after we had popped them in and kept us posted when someone was at the gate, he made a few friends tonight. A lovely evening shared with a super team thanks to Mencap and Goodgym
