August 26th 2015 - Wheels!

Today we went to collect my wheels from the mobility scooter hire place on route down south.  We found a company in Keswick, just under an hour from us and on route, they hired it to us for a week at a very good price.

I don't want to be on a mobility scooter at my age BUT if its the only way I can go out to places and have trips as a family then I will do, as I am still unable to walk very far.

The scooter was a small grey 4 wheel version (similar to pin but different make).  The man explained all buttons and how to take to bits/put back together and off we went back to the car.  We had to empty out all the bags and things in the middle of the car park, take the scooter to bits and put in first and then pack everything around it.  We had to remove the parcel shelf as the boot was slightly too full for it, but we got everything in!!!

This was to be my transport along with my crutches for Thomas land at Drayton Manor at the weekend.  My boys are not bothered about me being on it and have said the same if its the only way we can go out then it is.
