'First time Hedgers' go to a task which neither runner has performed before. That wasn’t going to stop us Good Gym'ers. We planned in advance, watched YouTube videos and arrived on time. Kapil arrived on foot as it was merely over a mile way while Nekane cycled to Mr A's house. What a nice day to cycle, walk or do gardening. We did all of it. Mr A was expecting us, provided us with the tools, and then we got to work. The garden was pretty with rose, Jasmine and Ivy. There was a beautiful fish tank in the middle with bunch of great looking fish( Our guess-carp). Mr A advised us that he wanted everything trimmed. We asked and were granted permission to click away. We took before pictures, during pictures, after pictures and some more pictures. Please see attached. To our astonishment, we actually tidied up the garden pretty good (two bags full of overgrown plants), moved some plants around (upon his request) to allow him unfettered access to the newly minted garden. And did I mention earlier, took some final pics. At the end, we were all done with a day of gardening and hedging in the sun. Written by, Kapil and Nekane
