Ms B loves her garden, but at 91, she can't keep up with it like she used to. She really wanted to have the weeds cleared from one of her flower beds so she can have a little lawn and make the garden feel bigger.

Melissa and I spent a couple of very sociable hours chatting and working in the garden, weathering rain, hail, slightly nervous cats and a persistent flock of visiting pigeons to get the job done. Ms B kept us going with offers of sweets and tea.

Although there's still more to do in the garden, Ms B was very pleased that the hardest work has now been done before she does her spring planting.
