Mission

The strimmer that lost it's glimmer!

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

We set to work on Mrs. B back garden. Lucy had a pair of gloves (lucky her) and started pulling the weeds from the grass and raking the autumn leaves. Fine job done Lucy until the winds came to reverse her efforts!

We had a little dilemma with a technical difficulty. The strimmer decided it didn't want to participate in our gardening spree and despite our youtube guides and attempted phone call to dad for top tips on broken strimmers we couldn't unravel the mystery machine. Luckily, we had a lawn mower with an extension we later found in the shed of ambundance! I set off with said mower and we managed to make the lawn look a little less wild. (SEE EVIDENCE BELOW IN PHOTOS!)

All in all we may not have solved the missing glimmer from the strimmer... but we did the best we could and Mrs B. seemed pretty pleased! Hope the the next good gymers have better skills and knowledge on strimmer repairs!
