Luis and Michelle arrived at Mrs T’s in Feltham on a hot sunny day. Her son was there to show us what needed doing in the garden and the tools we could use. The garden has become quite overgrown while Mrs T is shielding and her son has been trying to limit visits and keep her stocked up with food shopping.

Only one of the lawnmowers was working and the strimmer needed a new blade, but we’re not ones to mown and got on the with job, with the tools we had.

Luis made a good dent in the lawn while Michelle raked the loose grass and tackled the brambles (seems every GG Hounslow task has them).

After an hour and a half the extension cable started to overheat and give off a strange smell so we collected up our tools and headed off to rehydrate.
