Not really, but I couldn't come up with a better pun! Dave and I visited Mrs C today to help with installation of a clothes hook, particularly for trousers, a storage basket and a toilet holder and storage.

Instructions, screws and many, MANY allen keys were provided.

With some top notch team work, the assembly line we were, proved successful and Mrs C was very grateful for the help as she can organise things better. Tea, biscuits and lovely chatting was had before we headed off. Ace job and really nice to see Mrs C ( and obvious the one and only Dave ) again :)

I was pleasantly greeted by Mrs S this morning, who was in need of some gardening jobs.

We were both pleasantly surprised that we both speak the same dialect of Chinese, and that it was a nice coincidence that I was on this mission! She provided me with a trusty shovel and digging hoe (which is just the best tool ever!) and I got to it. There truly is a skill to using a digging hoe well, and I (and my muscles) discovered that well today!!

One of the two patches of the garden had been accomplished in weeding and soil turned, ready for planting some veggies that she once used the area for.

As I was finishing off clearing up, she magically produced a delicious bowl of noodle soup for me and we had a lovely natter.
