We rose to the occasion and that’s what mattocks!
2 GoodGymers made their way to help an isolated older person in Hackney.
- Sunday, 17th of December 2017
Anna and I had a very early (9:30am) start at Mr B’s home to remove three rose bushes from his back garden.
As well as forks and a spade, he provided us with a mattock which neither of us had ever used before, but it came in very handy to dig deep and hack away at some very thick and stubborn roots.
Mr B plans to give the rose bushes to his neighbour, so we made two Hackney residents happy in one go!
