Bryon and I spent the morning in the garden of Mr B.

Mr B’s garden is very pleasant and full of life. He told us how he enjoys working in it and tending to the shrubs but as one of the largest gardens on the street he needed some some extra pairs of hands to tackle some of the larger more physical jobs, such as clearing lots of leaves that had fallen from various trees.

So that’s what we did! We quickly got to work with the rakes, and then moved on to the shears to also trim back some of the vines and ivy that were starting to grow a bit too long.

All in all, we filled 6 bags and a bin full of leaves, vines and other garden debri. We enjoyed chatting to Mr B about his upcoming trips with friends to the seaside, and after that we bid our farewell to enjoy a sunny, but refreshingly cool, Saturday afternoon!
