Here's what Ms E of SW2 had to say about the mission:

I just wanted to say thank you to the runners who came, they did such a good job and were so friendly

Ms E of SW2, mission beneficiary

Firstly let's talk about the weather. Glorious, isn't it? Right let's talk about the mission, which was a glorious success. Charlotte and I were the chosen well seasoned pair, with this being our second mission together since we started GoodGym a year ago. We were confident that we would get the job ahead done in fashion under an hour, and that's exactly what happened. We met Ms E who was delighted to have us over to tidy up her garden with some lawn mowing and a good crack of weeding. Charlotte was on lawn mowing duty as she loves it, so much so she did it twice. I got on my hands and knees (with my new weeding tool from Tescos which I fully recommend to every one) and attacked those pesky weeds and my god there was some gigantic ones with huge roots. Like clock work, we succeeded in completing the task within the hour, tided up and disposed of the garden waste. Charlotte and I said our goodbyes to Ms E, wishing her a happy Easter and to each other with Charlotte (content in keeping her mission streak alive) now travels to Dolomites in Italy tomorrow and myself, I ran to my yoga class. Have a good holiday Charlotte and Grassie for today (See what I did there......... thank you in Italian sounds like grassy......oh you know......ok I'll get a taxi home then)......
