We turned up for a Saturday morning mission to clear up Ms C's garden, but when we arrived there was no sign of her. A quick phone call later, we were asked to pull out the weeds in the front garden while we waited for Ms C to return from the shops. After half an hour the front garden was completely clear and there was a huge pile to be composted, still Ms C hadn't appeared.

We called again and found out that Ms C was close, so we went to the end of the road to help bring her groceries home. Now we had access to the back garden there was another even bigger area for us to attack. Kash set to work removing grass from between the paving stones and I was yanking out anything unwanted from the flower beds.

By the end of the task the front garden and path in the back garden were looking clean and tidy and we'd made a dent in the flower beds at the back too
