This sunny Sunday morning, Coral and Frances ran to cut Mrs C's hedge. Once they'd figured out the ladder they were away with the clippers to trim the overgrown hedge! Though they weren't quite tall enough for a few of the topmost branches, they managed to tidy it up and even had a few nice chats with the neighbours.

Coral and Karen partnered up at Mr & Mrs R’s place in downtown Tooting raring to get stuck into her weedy beds and over-grown bushes (with Karen apologising profusely for her tardiness after a bad case of runners stitch... sorry again Coral!!! 😉)

Coral set about chopping and hacking with great gusto... and without a huff or a puff she soon had a very sorry looking (dead) lavender bush uprooted and disposed of without so much as a howdy. This girl doesn’t know her own strength... or maybe she does! 😂

After a lovely chat with Mr R about the scandalous behaviour of a large well-known local employer (Cowboys!!! ahem...) the weeds were tamed, the squirrels had squirrelled and Coral’s muscles had most definitely flexed! 💪🏻 🏋️‍♀️

The Goodgymer’s agreed they’d had a rootin Tootin time before running off into the fading sunlight possibly planning a line dance or two later at the local saloon... Yeehaw!!!!! 🥃 🤠

On Saturday we helped Mrs. V with cutting back her back garden and trimming her tree. The garden had become very overgrown over the winter and needed an overhaul for the summer. We were joined most of the morning by a red-breasted robin which sniped for worms and bugs we were digging up. We also received several courses of an early lunch from Mrs. V including tea, OJ, Gu desert and satay chicken, in no particular order.
