Hello. I had an ordnary but reassuring day today. Here is my account if you wish to read it. > **[The Little Things](https://mcchrystalise.wordpress.com/2016/09/21/the-little-things/)** > > Crowborough is my adopted home town. I’ve lived here for eighteen years. In the winter it can sometimes be a cold windswept unforgiving place. It is a town on a hill. With height comes extra … Best wishes, Steve. ---

Thank me for reading? Thank you for writing! Probably the best use of a couple of minutes of today was just spent reading your ‘account’. Well done! ---

Yeh, an easy pleasant read. Thankyou. Talking about passing conversations when about and about, can I share a recent one of mine? On Tuesday I went with my lovely carer Bev, to Morrisons. The lift to the car park was out of order. ` Oh Flumps!` we said and headed off to circumnavigate the store, to get into the car park where we were being collected. I didnt mind the extra mileage, not as if my feet hurt or legs are tiring, is it, when in my wheelie? So we had to pass a couple of factories and Wildax…the makers of bespoke wheelchair accessible campervans (oh what memories of the days when we enjoyed such (ahem) pleasures in such vehicles!!! I digress as I smile to myself…anyway, opposite these factories, is a dry stone wall and sitting atop of this walling was a collection of factory lads, enjoying their sarnies in the sunshine (yeh, our bit of Yorkshire does get sunny, y`know!). The pavement narrowed a bit and I knew I`d never get past all these dangling legs with torn jeans, grubby overalls and hobnail boots (no clogs mind!). So as I neared them, I said in my best Yorkshire accent, to the legs owners, `Nah then lads, I`m gonna ave to ask ya to raise them legs, so as I can get passed, please.` Then I was right beside them and looked at the first, winked and said,`Now if I catch any of your legs on me chair, I`ll av to tek ya oame wi` me and you`ll never get out again!` Tell ya, ya can get away wi`owt when your 60+ and in a wheelchair! I got a few smiles and`Yor alright luv!` Fun! pollx ---

Steve, do you take your Tramper in to shops? I find the turning circle too large and combined with my now injudicious throttle control,the safer option is to sit outside grinning like the idiot I am, However if the tides and sunshine cooperate I will go wild on the beach tomorrow. Unfortunately my Tramper is not quick enough to keep up with any playful dogs. Mick ---

Hello Mick. I take it into the supermarket but for everything else I do the grinning outside the door. The Tramper is brilliant on the beach but you’re right about the speed. Steve. ---
