A day in the garden: help Allan in Manila

Garden rescue day in Manila: bring gloves and a rake.

Manila
I'm 87 and I have lived in this house in Manila for 29 years. After the storm in September, two large branches and a fallen fence have blocked the back door and the garden path. I can no longer manage them myself because of arthritis. The council has told me it will be eight weeks before they can send someone. I'd feel much safer if it were cleared sooner. Help needed: two people with loppers and a wheelbarrow. I'll provide tea, sandwiches and the green waste bags. A few hours will do. You're what makes this possible, and I'll never forget it.
