Michael and Gosia met up in Camden today to help out Mrs M in a preparation for her moving out in the next few weeks ๐Ÿก. She is changing her current place to a flat located just few buildings down the street and needed some help in getting the stuff packed ๐ŸŽ’ and ready to go.

It was rainy ๐ŸŒง and gray ๐ŸŒซ outside and although we run / cycle to get here, it was great that our mission was indoor ๐Ÿ˜Š. There were few smaller tasks to handle so - to be as efficient as possible - we split after our arrival to do them in parallel.

Michael took care of the kitchen - packing up cutlery ๐Ÿฝ, pots and household supplies into boxes. Gosia went to the bathroom ๐Ÿ› and - as requested by Mrs M - put sheets and towels into black bin bags to get them ready for a transport. The next task was handled by both of us, and involved taking down books ๐Ÿ“š from one of Mrs M's shelves and getting rid of the dust.

Just before heading off we helped with handling some of the bags - partly moving them to a new flat, partly giving them up for a donation at a local charity shop.

All was done under a supervision of Mrs M's cat - Frankie ๐Ÿฑ, who was very friendly, cuddly (purrrrr, purrrrr) but not so very helpful ๐Ÿ™„.

Mrs M still needs a help with moving out but now wanted to have a bit of time to review and sort out some of the things at her current place. She is expecting a call from GG soon so she can let know what exactly is needed.
