After a brief chat with Mrs J I quickly set about the task in hand, starting with flower beds. In no time at all I had two filled bags of rubbish. Emptying them into the recycling bin and packed away the tools. I must say Mrs J, although advanced in her years was far too busy to be relying fully on her two stairlifts to take her up and down the flights of stairs and made short work of them a few times. I did have to suggest she should catch a breath whilst I was emptying the rubbish bags. Time quickly passed on such a lovely sunny day helping out in the community, made ever more special by MrJ regailing with fond merrories of her husbands time in the army when she lived in France...
