Sunny late Saturday afternoon and Steph went to Mr A house as had some garden to be looked after and needed attention. Mr A welcomed me and said that he had just arrived back home :-) lucky me!! His front garden needed much attention as weed and grass overgrown, but also a panel of his fence fell and was surrounded by mother nature. A brand new strimmer was handed out with some bags for the green stuff. Mr A said he was Egypt and then I told him that I have been 5 times to his home country, he became very chatty and told me stories of Egypt of the places I have visited. I went on my business while Mr A went back indoors in the shade to have his dinner. I freed the fence panel and put it back in place, cut the weed and grass and could you believe it we could see where Mr A's pond was previously. The strimmer battery needed charging so finished with my hands and a rake. At the end, I had 4 bags of grass, weed, wood etc which I placed outside ready for collection by the council. Mr A told me more stories of when he was back in Egypt. He apologized for talking so much, but did say Egyptians talk a lot :-). I know the song walk like and Egyptian and now I have an expression Talk like an Egyptian.
