On a grey, gloomy day we ran up the hill to Mrs J's house. She was so happy to see us and that the weather was fine, last time it was cancelled because of snow!

The task was simple - paint the fence green!

I mixed the paint with a broom stick feeling like a witch stirring their cauldron, I managed to resist making a witches cackle. The paint looked like gloop/swamp water but it actually covered well.

Before Mrs J knew it, the brown fence was nowhere to be seen! No, we hadn't stolen it. It was now all a forest Green colour and I think we did a great job. Mrs J agreed and she was ecstatic with our work, so much so she even thought we should become professional fence painters. What is that called? Fence painting=fainting? Hmm...

Just as we finished up it started to rain so it was perfect timing to wave goodbye! It was a fun task helping a lovely lady. The end.
