Having missed 3 weeks due to the Easter break, and also having fallen last week, I was a bit concerned about how much I would be able to do.
In fact, I managed remarkably well, even increasing some things. On the "walk", I had to give up early, as at the end of every nine-metre length, I had to turn through 180 degrees and started to get a bit dizzy and stumble. No point in having another fall!
On the way home, I went to the local farm shop (not the organic one) and bought a ball cabbage (honestly, not a cauliflower this time) and purple sprouting broccoli, a carrot and 2 quite large white carrots, together with an iceberg lettuce and some tomatoes on the vine. Also got some fruit: 2 MacIntosh Red apples, 2 plums, 2 kiwi fruit, some grapes, strawberries and raspberries.
All this for £6.05!
Came home and found there was no parking place in the car park (now greatly reduced in size because of roadworks here by Scottish Power), so went across the road and parked in a disabled bay. I am not happy about leaving it there for long, especially overnight, so I shall try to move it later.
Later: found there were 3 parking places here, so crossed the road and collected my car. By the time I came back, there were only 2 (non-adjacent) places left. Managed to reverse park between 2 cars. Wow!

A little fairy told me you had been to the Farm Shop today. (I was there a bit later than you, for some of the delicious local ice cream, which they also sell). I did worry about you getting a parking space when you returned home, and am glad you found one.
good driving, I hate trying to reverse between 2 cars. Talking of fruit, I managed to plant a James Grieve at the weekend in the hail! Good to see you getting lots of fresh fruit and veg. Managed to get a stroke off Lilly when she was between the chair and the wall mooching for food, she did a fantastic leap but was not too disturbed. (btw she's a cat for those who don't know)
