Buffeted run via West Ham park for Kevin and I as we headed to help Mrs L.

She had a new sofa delivered but unfortunately when it was fitted she hadn’t noticed it meant she couldn’t access her gas meter.

Mrs L showed us where she wanted the sofa moving to and introduced us to Rocky and Gizmo before we set about unclipping the sofa sections to move it down the hall, it was a tight squeeze so we needed to dismantle the back section and side arms but unfortunately Mrs L had a limited selection of tools so she went and asked her neighbours if they had a spanner set......thankfully they came to our rescue.

A little twisting and turning ensured the sofa went in its new home with a little rearrangement of the furniture all that was left was to say our goodbyes to Mrs L,Rocky and Gizmo and head back in the wind ,
