A Room With A Moo

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

This week, the GG batsignal went out in the cloudy skies around York Minster. Mrs M is ready to come home from hospital, but will initially be living downstairs while she regains her mobility. Could GG York send some caped crusaders to shift some furniture and make this can happen?

As it turns out, yes (other than the capes). The task was a fair way out of York, so Paul did an admirable run while I cycled. We arrived, met Mrs M's friends and followed their instructions to help get the furniture moved out of the way - the biggest challenge being a big wooden table which was less 'disassemblable' than we'd hoped!

In short time we had Mrs M's reclining chair and bed in the right place in the living room, from which she'll be able to recover at her own pace and watch the beautiful cows just beyond her back garden.

Mission accomplished.

lovely report and "disassemblable" is such a great word! Nice work both!
