We’ve done a few gardening tasks for Mr M this year and today’s mission was to mow the lawn and do some more cutting back of the trees/hedge and brambles overhanging the pathway outside, to provide safer passage for passers by and avoid complaints.

I was delighted to see that since the last task Mr M had felt empowered enough to tackle some of the brambles in his garden and he seemed delighted that our efforts had spurred him on to do so - an aspect of GoodGym missions that can be easy to overlook.

Whilst I was working Mr M was watching the cricket Hundred and we had a lovely chat about cricket during a tea break, despite my limited knowledge! 🏏

An all round lovely task.
