Well we did it! I am sitting comfortably in my recliner by way of my new ceiling hoist!
I wrapped the sling (dunno why, but I keep calling it a shroud by mistake…oooeerr) around me whilst in my wheelie, positioned myself under the track, attached the loops onto the hooks, …pressed the ``upbutton and up I went...........then hubby pushed me along a couple of feet, then I pressed thedown` button…wheeeee!
As if by magic I was safely deposited in situ…so smooth…so easy…no strain on eith er of us…
Lucy looked on in amazement, as if to say, What the chuff is me mother doing now? LOL!
So there we are, maiden voyage complete to everyone`s satisfaction.
What a difference Poll from struggling to do things, that gi normous horrid floor hoist to luxury - more necessity. How wonderful. Hard to think only a few months ago you were so downbeat about resolving the issue of moving around without your house being taken over by large contraption. G couldnt spend any more time at the bottom of the garden in that shed!
Ill bet the smile on your face is fabulous! Isnt it lovely to be able to do things again with hardly any effort whatsoever.
Clap yer spy glass to yer eye me hearty and look out for buried treasure down the back of yer arm chair! Sounds fantastic Poll, now all you need is a parrot.
