Hounslow

Mission

A (c)hair raising task

2 GoodGymers made their way to help an isolated older person in Hounslow.

On a very soggy Sunday JP and Emily met at Mrs J's house where her son and husband were there to explain what needed doing. The task was to move a very heavy electric recliner chair from the dining room to the bedroom upstairs. The problem was that the house was a cavern of narrow corridors and full to the brim of furniture and ornaments, and the chair was a very awkward shape. After a lot of struggling and a battle of wills between us and the chair, we just about managed to get it up the stairs in two halves. We definitely got a good strength workout!
