On arrival, Ms S suggested we might be a day early and perhaps even completely different people expected too! But early or not, we weren't going to let that stop us from tackling the overgrown garden.

Armed with a strimmer and mower, we cut back the long grass, kicking up quite the dust storm from the sun-dried clumps as we worked. We raked up every last bit and gave the grapevines a little trim, finishing the full transformation just as the grey clouds rolled in overhead!
