Two runners from Kingston and Battersea came together in Putney to mow the lawn and trim the overgrown jasmine bush in Mrs. D’s back garden. It had started to become overgrown with all the warm weather and rain we’ve been having lately.

Mrs D and her excitable dog Rosie welcomed us and provided us with tools for the job.

It was a perfect sunny Sunday afternoon to do some gardening, so we rolled our sleeves up and set about the task in hand.

Samia quickly got to work trimming and shaping the tall round jasmine bush - a great opportunity to test her topiary skills - while Debra tackled the overgrown lawn with an electric lawn mower. The smell of freshly cut grass was delightful.

We made light work of the task and it wasn’t long before we’d finished and bagged up the grass and cuttings.

Mrs D thanked us for our help and was pleased with the end result. We said our goodbyes and left to enjoy the rest of the sunny afternoon.
