Yard rescue for Shawn, 80: fallen trees and overgrown beds
Garden rescue day in Sydney: bring gloves and a rake.
🇦🇺 2004, Sydney, New South Wales, Australia646 views
I'm 80 and I have lived in this house in Sydney for 50 years. After the storm in January, 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 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.
Thanks for being kind about this.

Praying for you. Hope the doctors have good news. We're a small family in London but we're thinking of you
Good luck. Get well soon. My daughter saw me on my phone and now she wants to give her pocket money. Love from Dwarka.
Thinking of you. Shared this with my family. Thinking of Sydney.
