Yard rescue for Bagus, 87: fallen trees and overgrown beds
Garden rescue day in Surakarta: bring gloves and a rake.

I'm 87 and I have lived in this house in Surakarta for 39 years. After the storm in February, 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 never thought I'd be the one asking, and I'm grateful for every bit of support.

Get well soon. My daughter saw me on my phone and now she wants to give her pocket money. Take care.
Take care, Bagus. Your post was clear and honest. Wish I lived closer to Hubballi so I could bring a meal. Greetings from Bengaluru
