Reggae Unroots
2 GoodGymers made their way to help an isolated older person in Ealing.
- Saturday, 18th of May 2024
Kash and Sevan were told that Mrs S had a big garden and oh boy, was it big. They were asked to focus on that back, weeding the patio area and trimming anything growing through the fence from the playing fields behind. As they got going Mrs S' neighbour popped his head over the fence before turning up some reggae tunes in their garden that enveloped all of their neighbours' homes.
"We saw you running as we were driving home. You two are machines! They're marathon runners" - Mrs S' neighbour
While Kash and Sevan aren't quite marathon runners, they are plenty competent weeders having had years of mission hardening and testing. They got to work, pulling what they could from between the slabs, while anything that was encased in concrete, they scrubbed and scraped to clean up the patio.
Sevan moved on to chopping the ivy growing through the back fence while Kash worked on clearing the weeds from the long path leading up to the patio. In 90 minutes they were done, leaving the family very pleased with the result.
