The simple things that we take for granted can be the most distressing when they become impossible for us to do. Mr A is a happy and kind man but due to a recent stroke he was unable to put up some curtains, something he wouldn't even think twice about before. That's where we came in (well we came in the front door but that's another matter). Myself and Russell (on his first first mission for GG) met our host and were shown the curtains that needed to be put up. A few screws we're tightened by Russell 'the muscle', and then I hung them by doing more clipping than and over-eager video editor putting together a fast paced advert for dog grooming and toenail health. Once we were finished it was really apparent how thankful our host was and that made us really happy to know that such a small effort on our part has made such a big difference to someone's day. Thanks Russell. Hope you enjoyed your first mission of hopefully many more to come.
