Move On Up (all the boxes)
2 GoodGymers made their way to help an isolated older person in Islington.
- Saturday, 12th of October 2019
Danny and I were welcomed by the neighbor Mr L, who let us in and introduced us to our lovely host Miss M. We had a tour of the house and Miss M explained what the task was. Namely, she needed a bit more space in the main areas she was using and, thus, a number of cardboard boxes had to be moved to the spare room upstairs. Under her guidance, Danny, Mr L and I moved about 20 boxes. Some of the boxes were very heavy, so we worked as a team and moved them in pairs. While doing so, we made sure all boxes could be easily accessed by Miss M. She was really pleased and thanked us for the help when we were finished.
At the end of the task, Danny and I had a chat with Miss M, who told us more about her home and how she was planning to redecorate parts of it. Being a lovely host, she insisted on us having a hot drink before our departure. We, then, said goodbye and wished her a pleasant weekend.
P.S. Good luck to Danny at the Oxford Half on Sunday!!
