Having a snail of a time

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

Mrs M's garden needed a tidy up. It had been neglected over lockdown while no-one could come and help Mrs M, and a lot of weeds were starting to show up despite her best efforts.

I spent a lovely sunshiney hour pulling up the weeds, cutting down some ivy, laying tarpaulin to stop more weeds growing and making friends with the snails and spiders that I disturbed.

Mrs M gave me the loveliest thank you card when I left, I was chuffed.
