Shiftin' in the Rain.

2 GoodGymers made their way to help an isolated older person in Tower Hamlets.

Last minute mission confirmation meant a failure to check the weather forecast (although just sticking my head outside before setting off would've given me the answer). Thankfully it wasn't a downpour, and Louise and I arrived at Mr A's from different directions ready for some bed frame, mattress and sofa shifting.

Mr A's carer had already moved a single bed frame outside, so we initially found ourselves confronted with Big Sofa Tetris in terms of moving this through his narrow front door, but after successfully completing that with a few twists and turns, and after dismantling the double bed frame, all the other parts proved easy to relocate - 2 mattresses later we were all done and were thanked by a grateful Mr A and his friendly carer.
