I'm 83 and I have lived in this house in Pune for 36 years. After the storm in July, 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 a heart condition. 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: someone with a chainsaw, plus a few people with rakes and gloves. I'll provide tea, sandwiches and the green waste bags. A few hours will do. Thanks for being kind about this.

  • Best of luck, Pooja. I've been in a tough spot myself and it does get easier. My mother had a similar thing happen so this one hit home. Blessings.
