1 runner made their way over to Mr I to help with his garden, Lessons learnt on this mission ..when you read the word bramble...wear appropriate leggings!!! We went out to the garden to assess what needed to be done and focused on what I could manage to make safe for him in the time I had. Shears in hand I set to work snipping away, loads of blackberries in the garden that Mr I told me he used to pick to have for his breakfast, he is such an interesting character regaling me with stories while I worked about how his family first came over from Ireland and how he used to design stain glass windows for monasteries. An hour and a half in and hopefully I've made a big difference for him to safely put his washing put or even sit in his garden
