Having met Ana for the first time last week on a hedge trimming mission, it was nice to see a friendly face again this morning in Forest Hill. We met Mrs B's daughter and could helpfully inform her that we both answered to the same name so she needn't worry about getting us mixed up!

There was a lot to get stuck into. I started weeding while Ana whipped out the brand new garden shears to tackle the hedges. After a couple of hours hard graft we had revealed a few pathways, some garden sheds, a (broken) bench, discovered a pond and cleared the paving slabs. There is still a way to go but we made a good start, and Mrs B's daughter was very pleased with the results.

After a quick trim of the front hedge we were on our way - another mission accomplished by Ana and Anna!
