Is it summer already ๐ŸŒž๐Ÿ”ฅ?! Joanna, Sarah and Gosia met up in Wandsworth today to help Mr and Mrs V with some weeding and trimming in their small front and back gardens ๐ŸŒฑ๐Ÿก.

As from the hottest April ever can be expected - it was very warm and the sun was shining bright on the sky making everything around us look colourful and beautiful. Even the weeds had their own greeny charm ๐ŸŒพ๐Ÿ˜Š.

Mrs V gave us few instructions on what she would like us to do, provided with forks, spade and a pack of waste bags. Fully informed and equipped we were ready to go โœŠ.

We started with the back yard and our task was to deal with a quite big army of weeds growing in between the plants. There were few especially stubborn ones, but in overall the operation went very smoothly. Result = 4 x waste bags full of weeds. While we were working, Mrs V offered us drink which really helped us survive the heat๐ŸŒก.

Then, we moved to the front yard and had pretty similar task to do. Sarah and Gosia were working on deweeding the main garden bed. In the meantime, Joanna took care of a little brave tulip โš˜ growing on a side, completely alone between a bunch of pesky weeds ๐ŸŒฑ๐ŸŒฑ๐ŸŒฑ. Our hero โ™ฅ๏ธ. Result = 2ย  x more waste bags full of weeds. Before leaving we did a bit of brooming and general tidy up in front of the front door. Voila!
