Good times never seemed so good - but that's what a quick after-work mission will do for you!

Today's mission introduced me to absolute diamond, Dave (on his first ever mission no less! ๐ŸŽ‰ ๐Ÿ˜„๐ŸŽ‰)

Our task for the evening was to move a reclining chair for Miss K from her bedroom to her living room. This will help to improve her mobility and allow her to enjoy more of her flat, as she currently predominantly stays in her bedroom.

The recliner was to be moved into a space currently occupied by a regular armchair, so first order of business was to move that out of the way.

That done, the task of moving the recliner was pretty simple. Thankfully, I'd read Hilary's excellent report from the other week ("Taking the easy way out") in which she'd detailed how they'd found it easier to get a recliner through a door in the reclined position. A top notch suggestion, duly taken! ๐Ÿ˜„๐Ÿ‘

We finished off moving the last few bits of furniture into their new positions and made our goodbyes. Unfortunately there are no pictures of the recliner (it was either in use or my hands were too busy to take a photo), so please enjoy the before and after photos of the eventual location of the regular armchair๐Ÿ‘ A satisfying and most triumphant post-work adventure! โœŒ๏ธ
