Mission

Cutting back the wilderness!

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

Andrew and I cycled/ran over to get to the mission started. I got a little lost to be perfectly honest!

However, Andrew had been rather busy and had already run 15km earlier that day - he was on a run! Surprised he was not already on the floor!

We got stuck in and hacked away and strimmed back the long long grass. Was lovely to speak to Mr P and learn all about his parrot, Copper who was very cute by the way and learn how kind parrots are.

A couple of hours later, we had trimmed and mowed the garden down neatly and Mr P said it was lovely to have more light coming into his garden and ust have a garden again.

He was very grateful and was planning on having a cuppa later that evening and look out and enjoy his garden again.

After a successful mission, Andrew and I were on our way. Hopefully, Andrew finally had a rest!
