The "Young Guns" arrived at Mrs S house dead on time with both of us having previously visited Mrs S on separate times this year. We both had good memories, so good times ahead like at a night in"Club Tropicana".

Mrs S told us with a "Careless Whisper" what to do. Mow the lawn, gather up the leaves, tie up the chrysanthemum, water the geraniums and wrap up two pots containing some chrysanthemum and geraniums with newspaper, bubble wrap and the trusty string to offer protection against frost. I looked at Mrs S and said "I'm Your Man" and Beth is great too. So like that we enthusiastically obliged and did "Everything She Wants". Once all the mowing, tidying, tying up, watering, spot of removing old plants and of course the finale.... wrapping up was complete. We stepped back to admire the work we did which frankly looked as if we were standing on "The Edge Of Heaven". Mrs S was delighted with her garden, having a sense of "Freedom" in the result of it. We parted ways agreeing that next time if one of us gets to see Mrs S we'll be sure to ask what she did "Last Christmas".

Inspired by Wham!!
