Grape expectations

2 GoodGymers made their way to help an isolated older person in Islington.

At first sight Mrs L's garden was a bit of a jungle with vines, roses and various other plants intertwined - cutting down space, cutting out light & crowding out some lovely shrubs.

Under her helpful supervision (and with interest from both neighbours) Anne and David cut and lopped their way through the worst of the vegetation, leaving a lighter and more open garden. And what we didn't expect to find were small bunches of grapes nestling amongst the foliage, giving a Mediterranean touch to help Mrs L feel at home.
