Nykolette and I arrived in a cold downpour of rain and were greeted by Mrs R who tried to persuade us to have tea first. Wanting to get on with the job we started our task on the back garden , Jill looking charming in her green neck warmer to cover her head! The rain soon stopped and we chatted with Mrs R as we weeded the patio paving stones. We enjoyed sharing stories about all our experiences in the NHS and learned Mrs R had worked as a midwife locally for many years. Even though we had all only just met we enjoyed our chatting and soon Mrs R was joining in with a bit of trimming and loving the fresh air. We weeded and pruned and cut down climbers that had entwined themselves into neighbouring trees. Jill unearthed a very fishy loo seat which we decided was so colourful we would leave propped up by the fence! Mrs R gave us a very welcome cup of tea after we had filled several bags with greenery, and a delicious chocolate treat.
