(Mission) lost in translation
2 GoodGymers made their way to help an isolated older person in Hounslow.
- Thursday, 16th of May 2019
Mr. B’s wife really struggles with her English, and it took us the whole mission to realise we were not who she was expecting.
Mr. B is in the hospital, and soon due to go back home. We were supposed to clear his room so a hospital bed could be installed. However, his wife thought we were going to install the bed so she had already done the work. In the meantime we managed to move a disassembled bed to the garage.
We forgot to take a picture so here you can see my cat.

Love your cat, I remembered the lack of photo on my cycle home! At least we moved some furniture out of the way even if it wasn’t exactly what we thought we’d need to do!
Great work both, I'm sure she'll be glad to have had a hand with moving the bed and the feedback will be shared with the team at the hospital. Purrfect picture, Luis!
Thanks Tom! You know how to make a pun 😄
