Good morning all from a yet again, grey and dismal London, with the threat of rain!! 11'C already though so quite mild.
Had a lovely walk with DD yesterday, it's so nice to have someone to talk to while we walk! We covered 3.5 miles yesterday, most of it quite hilly too and so far no ill effects!!
Had a phone chat with my dear old friend in Cornwall. She was 96 last week, mentally, sharp as a tack but getting a little frail and wobbly now though. Apparently, on Saturday night at about 11 o'clock, she went into her bedroom, lost her balance and went down. Didn't break anything but she couldn't get up. She has an alert pendant but of course, she wasn't wearing it and couldn't get to it, nor the phone! To cut a long story short, (she took 90 minutes to tell me all this!) eventually, her dog walker friend appearedk and let himself in. She asked what he was doing there so early and, looking puzzled he told her it was 7.30 at night! She had been on the floor for 20 hours!! Paramedics came and got her up but she wouldn't go to hospital, because of the dog, the stretched NHS and the risk of catching Covid 19! She's a bit traumatised and very sore but she'll be fine and was so lucky not to have broken a hip!!
Have a good one everybody, I'm of to continue knitting my hat, it's going well!! Lots of love xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx
