I phoned Ms R, my elderly isolated neighbour yesterday to give her some telephone company. Unfortunately, I couldn’t get through at the time and then was working when she returned the call - but eventually I managed to get through during my lunch break. Sadly she’s had several bereavements lately so was very grateful to chat. She was keen to find out who had cut the hedge in my garden and was very surprised to find out that I’d done it - so the photo for this report is the hedge! It was lovely to hear how she enjoys looking at the plants (still alive!) in my garden as she’s feeling very bored and lonely, so this helps to pass the time. I’ll be sure to give her another call soon
