Ms D refers to her garden as a “community peace garden.” It was filled with a beautiful variety of plants and flowers, along with many unique treasures she had discovered during her charity shop visits.

We shared a common interest in forensics and the law, so we spent time chatting about the programmes we both enjoy and discussing local cases that have taken place over the years she has lived in her home.

I had a lovely time talking with her while helping with a general tidy-up.
