On Saturday afternoon, Mel & I met in Frenchay to help Mrs A shift a few bits and bobs in her house.

The first to go was the Christmas tree which got carried outside, followed by the Christmas decorations which went up into the loft.

Luckily I live near the tip so will be dropping the tree off in the morning!

Next on the menu was the gas fire which got repaired (not sure if this is within Goodgym H&S guidelines!!!) followed by some furniture manoevering and a quick vacuum.

There was just enough time to replace some batteries and lightbulbs before heading off.

After a couple of hours of organising we received our payment... in chocolate coins!
