Mission

Hello...¡Hola!...

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

Hilary and I discovered today that without the Royal Family, the publishers of Britain's go to magazine for respectful coverage of both celebrity and royalty "news" would need to find a lot of other "celebrities" to grace their front covers. How did we make this ground breaking discovery...well, Mrs M had accumulated over many months a vast collection of Hello (as well as the Spanish equivalent ¡Hola!) and we were tasked with moving them, along with some items of furniture from her living room to the bedroom.

The biggest challenge (apart from resisting the temptation to sit on the bed and flick through endless glossy pictures of Kate, Meghan and Camilla, and their equally glamorous Spanish equivalents)...was to create enough space in the bedroom to fit all the furniture, but somehow we managed, and moving the table and armchair ended up being reasonably straightforward.

After the carers had consulted with Mrs M in her bed, we then moved another table on which her TV was located and unlocked the wheels on Mrs M's bed to enable the carers to be able to move the bed away from the wall to give them access to both sides when they came to visit her. With that our mission was complete and with a cheery Adios we were on our way.
