Me and Juliet had done a mission here before moving furniture, this time we were in the garden! The cat we met on our first visit made herself known again, doing everything to get our attention!! Ms. J needed her rose bush pruned and some bulbs planted. Ms. J asked for the bulbs to be planted wherever there was space; she said so she would be surprised when they blossomed. Juliet tackled the rose bush; we then moved onto planting the bulbs. Ms. J asked if we could sweep up; of course we said! Before we could sweep up we had to stroke the cat who had been vying for our attention since we arrived. We swept the path and steps to make it easier for Ms. J to move around. We said we'd like to come back to see what the garden looked like in the spring!! We left Ms. J and her cats to enjoy the rest of her day, after another round of strokes for the cat!!
