Ms S was very welcoming and was worried about me walking to her place in rainy weather so had turned the heating up in time for my arrival, which was super sweet.

The job only took 5-10 mins as she only wanted the curtains in her bedroom taken down.

I got chatting to her a little bit whilst doing the task and she seemed to be active in the local community and wanted to retain independence as much as she could and was only seeking help where there were health and safety implications given her conditions. Her upbeat attitude was very inspiring.

I asked if there was anything else I could help with me she said there wasn't anything at this point.

Treated self to a pint of beer at a local pub on the way to the station. I had forgotten to take a photo of anything task related 🙃 (sorry!) so here are the photos of grey sky and my beer 🍺
