Hey hey hey, what a beautiful day!
1 GoodGymer made their way to help an isolated older person in Tower Hamlets.
- Sunday, 20th of November 2022
The weather forecast had been wet and dreary, and I thought I wouldn't be able to cycle to this mission, even when I got up in the morning to the sound of rain outside. But, hey, the powers that be decided to be kind to me; the rain cleared and the sun came out!!
Ms A was a sweet person, needing help with accessing her voicemails on her mobile and able to speed dial her favourite people and I sorted these for her as quickly as possible (her phone wasn't a smart one so did take me a bit of time!). And she wanted to learn to do "window shopping" online, bless her, which I demo'ed by taking her to M&S to look at some winter coats; perhaps not a good choice as the prices put her off!
Anyway, she was very grateful for my help and insisted that I have a cuppa & biscuit to keep with the custom in her home that applies to all visitors. All in all, a rewarding first mission for me :)
