A day in the garden: help Si-woo in Gangnam

Fallen branches and overgrowth are blocking Si-woo's path; a few hours of help would make a big difference.

Gangnam
I'm 82 and I have lived in this house in Gangnam for 41 years. After the storm in August, 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: 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. I hope life is good to you.
