  • Hi Jim, Car and scooter sounds great. Can you use a Walker or wheelchair to get from car to shops? I use my Walker a lot as then I can sit and rest whenever I need but can't use wheelchair on my own, I need pushed! What colour of car did you choose? I have a navy blue Honda Jazz automatic & love it.

    We are on our way to Scarborough. Stopped overnight at Premier Inn just over half way there and will arrive there tomorrow! Too long a journey to do all at once for me! Plus Lots of roadworks on A66 which slow things up.

    Enjoy getting out and about, when you can! I hope it will be soon!      Ps it has just taken me 45 mins to Log in, so now I'm going to read for a bit!

    Love Annette x
