This was my third round of bike deliveries to drop off meals prepared by King's Church volunteers for local households in Catford (in lieu of the feast they'd host in normal times). The nice thing was that I saw the same people on my round each time; one of the recipients surprised me by learning and proudly demonstrating some sign language, and another responded to my hearing loss by talking about his difficulties with his eyesight. It's always nice when people take an interest and reciprocate the extra effort it takes me to have a conversation! Sorry I'm not really one for selfies so no photos - I will try to get better at that though.
