The terrific trio were out tonight! Great to see Sara and Meera back out on a task.

On arrival Salvo our task owner teased us by asking us to come inside the annex... ooh an indoor task we thought... but we were just walking through to get to the back garden...

And actually, we all needed the fresh air so it was good to be outdoors instead.

The task was to rake the leaves, barrel them up and dispose on the dump... easy peasy!

Sara and Meera started raking the leaves into near little piles, whilst I had the job of wheelbarrowing them to the leafy pile. After watching my method of squating, bending, lifting... smarty plants Sara suggested I used a dustpan to scoop them up in! Genius!

Around 15 trips later we were done.

Thank you as always for our little treats after the task.
