My Kind Neighbour nomination

Marita from Blenheim

My wonderful kind neighbours are Tina and John Lawrence.They remind me of the sort of neighbours we all had years ago.We have only been neighbours for just over a year,but feels much longer.I have had failing health over the past year,and they are always looking out for me.Nothing is too much trouble for them.While I was in plaster they came over and trimed all my Lavender,fixed doors,made soup,mended gates,etc.Nothing is too much trouble.All this and so much more.They are senior citizens,with wonderful life experiences under their belt,with a wealth of knowledge which they are more than happy to share.I feel blessed to have them in my life,and would love them to win a prezzy card.Many thanks,Marita Winstanley.
