Carpe-t diem with Mrs G!

This mission was quite literally Carpe-t diem for the lovely Mrs G, who must be one of the most amazing ladies in Twickenham at the young old age of 85 so how could we not sieze the day for her?

We absolutely loved hearing her stories as we worked to move her antique furniture on two large rugs in her lounge, although she had also been through a very sad family tragedy which had us heartbroken. This short furniture work out enabled the next part - a bit of rug pulling to flatten the rugs as much as they would go in order to get the creases out to stop the risk of Mrs G tripping in her flat. Furniture back and hey presto, mission accomplished.

Mrs G was so chatty that we didn't have time to extend this mission with gardening but we'd love to return for another mission to help her with pruning.

And she had another great idea for us for another mission - a lesson in how to use her mobile phone. This has got us thinking...there must be so many elderly folk out there who have this need?
