This was my first time visiting an older person referral, but I hope it won't be my last.

The lovely Ms M let me in, and I also got to meet another Ms M - the cat. The human Ms M asked me if I was the resident GoodGym tech expert. It was then I realised this mission might be more difficult than I thought, as I am very far from being the resident GoodGym tech expert, in any shape or form.

The mission was a partial success. Did I get the Robot Hoover to hoover the living room and hallway? Yes. Did I get the Robot Hoover to use the second of its 2-in-1 functions to mop the kitchen floor? Yes. But did I get any closer to making the Robot Hoover easier to use or understanding the instructions? No. Ms M seemed happy with the results though, and felt empowered to try out YouTube tutorial videos, saying that learning how to do things herself gave her confidence and made her happy.

The last jobs were to empty the Robot Hoover's bin, and return it to the 'dock' to charge. I said goodbye to Ms M and returned to my own 'dock' (a coffee shop) to charge.

I was off to Trelai Park parkrun to volunteer as a marshal. I've also been made aware from previous trips to Trelai Park parkrun that they like to do a bit of a litter pick before or afterwards. And I've become very skilled at them!

So I helped pick up a bag of trash whilst the other volunteers were arriving. I then went over to 'triangle turn' with one of the volunteers to marshal. The title of this run report comes from one of the runners. I should mention that the weather this morning was not the nicest. It was raining, it was windy, it was a bit tough. The runners were making the most of it though, including one who ran past up and exclaimed 'thank god for dance music', which must have been the headphone power source for her.
