Here's what Mrs M of SW11 had to say about the mission:

We're well satisfied! They always get it done good. Very nice people!

Mrs M of SW11, mission beneficiary

James and Catriona were welcomed with the warmest of greetings at Mrs M's House on Sunday morning, particularly excited that it was Catriona's second visit to the house after a successful previous mission.

The task was to take back the garden from the weeds and overgrown trees which were taking over. Choosing their weapons of choice - James the secateurs and Catriona the trowell - they started cutting back the trees and pulling up the weeds. A couple of hours later, with one short break for plums and glasses of water, the weeds and trees were dispatched. Bagging up the debris along with some other heavy rubbish Mrs M hadn't been able to lift from the garden, they were done and dusted and off to enjoy the rest of their sunny Sundays.
