Today my scooter arrived after what seems like an age but is in fact much sooner than I expected.
First of all another demo and the answering of many questions, then another supervised short drive (glad of his support).
Then I was on my own.
So, off up the town to Marks and Spencer.
Seeing the Big Issue seller held the door to the shopping centre, I felt honour bound to buy one.
Then off to the other end of the centre to see what Somerfields was like before I went back to Marks and Spencer where I had lunch and bought some socks and a new shirt.
After that to WH Smith for a New Home card for brother's son. Of course, with Easter and Mothers' Day, there were none, but found a pretty picture of a house standing in a field of lavender.
Before returning home I went to the Church to check on the way round the back (nae probs.) and timed the journey home to know when I need to leave tomorrow.
Then back home and drove into my sitting room.
Decided I wanted to be facing out the way.
This involved quite a bit of (manual) manoeuvrings, but made it in the end.
Phew!

How do you manage the self-closing doors?
Oh dear. Yet another woman driver on our roads! lol. I'd love to see you going 'down the aisle' today!
Thanks for all the comments.
~The self closing doors (I Presume you mean lifts, aka elevators) have sensors and don't close when you are in the way.
Besides, I can get in pretty niftily.
Actually I meant the likes of the front doors to your place of residence.
I carry two door stops.
I always carry them!
Hi Elaine,
When you get yet more proficient head for the Fylde Coast for a cup of tea and a bun
Congratulations on your first outing.... sounds like you are going to enjoy your scooter and why not indeed... looking forward to a description of it.
It is a mini scooter which can be taken apart to put in the boot of a car. It is mostly black with blue trim. Makes aa change from the perpetual red.
Do you have it/him/her named yet?? Inquiring minds want to know!
The scooter is now formally known as "Scoot".
