When an opportunity cam up for one last mission of the year I just couldn't refuse. On what turned out to be quite a glorious Saturday I headed out on my run to see Mrs M, and I must have needed it as it turned into a speedy one. Along the way it suddenly dawned on me that I had been to Mrs. M before, and so it was to be a wonderful reunion. Once there i knocked on the door all gloved and masked in preparation, she answered and after a brief chat about what had been going on since we last met I picked up the tools and got to work.

The task, to clear up the leaves as in the rainy weather that we had been having they were becoming dangerous and a slip hazard. Thankfully Mrs. M had two green bins, and they were certainly needed, so on went the radio and off went Mikey - bopping and singing (to the delight of passers by I'm sure).

After nearly two hours it was time to pack up and head off as I had coffee and cake at the end of my run. I said farewell to Mrs. M and wished her a Merry Christmas before leaving with nothing but vegan cake on my mind.
