'It makes me so happy when you come and visit'

1 GoodGymer made their way to help an isolated older person in Bournemouth.

After having to cancel last week, I was glad to be back to see Mrs M as we had lots to catch up on. Last time we met she recommended that I visit Durlston Country Park near Swanage, and a couple of days later we did and she was delighted that we'd had such a lovely time (If you're local it's well worth a visit).

The drizzle arrived as I made a start.. how is it anorak weather already?! The breeze also meant that as quick as I swept more leaves kept on coming down.. but I love the autumn so don't mind that it means more sweeping.

Mrs M had a parcel that needed posting but her legs were particularly sore today so I made a quick stop on the way home for her which she was really greatful for.

Despite a sleepless night with my baby and wondering how I'd have the energy to get there this morning, hearing 'it makes me so happy when you come and visit' was all I needed to make it so worthwhile.
