I'm 84 and I have lived in this house in Lahore for 30 years. After the storm in May, 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 poor eyesight. The council has told me it will be ten 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. Glad we found this place.

    • Hope it all works out, Bushra. Get well soon. I hope August is when things finally get easier. Thinking of Lahore
