A lovely excuse to get out for a run today to visit Mrs J and help her and her many garden ornaments, with a tidy up of her back garden.

Mrs J was a very keen gardener but is sadly now wheelchair bound, although she can still do some plant potting, so it was great to be able to help her with some of the things that she isn’t able to do, like cutting back some bushes and weeding, all under the watchful eyes of the ornaments.

She even put on the radio loud enough for me to be able to sing along to lots of eighties tunes while I was working.

A fine task to help with Mrs J’s wellbeing and my own!
