A day in the garden: help David in Berlin

David, 77, can no longer manage the yard after a storm; we are looking for helpers with chainsaws and rakes.

Berlin
I'm 77 and I have lived in this house in Berlin for 32 years. After the storm in December, 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 twelve weeks before they can send someone. I'd feel much safer if it were cleared sooner. Help needed: a small team to cut, stack and carry away branches. I'll provide tea, sandwiches and the green waste bags. A few hours will do. Glad we found this place.
