Journeys

[gness]

I've just got my car ready for some long trips and a few things struck me...

Long trips aren't what they were.....once a trip to Devon and Cornwall from the Midlands would have meant an overnight stop...and passing many cars with the bonnets up while the radiator cooled....

I was remembering the trips I made with MrG when he was too ill to drive..
On once occasion he began to choke and splutter.....Stroke...he was croaking....I'm having a stroke....I'm choking....can't breathe.....

I pulled over...grabbed my phone....and flew around to his side...trying to decide whether to drag him out of the car or try to lay the seat back down for the kiss of life....or some chest thumping...and as I was dialing for help I noticed....

I was taking some runner beans growing in pots to the daughter.....they were behind him and one of the canes had tucked itself under MrG's shirt collar.....when he tried to move forward...he couldn't....it was choking him...the more he tried to move the more it held on to him.....

I flicked up the shirt collar....and hey presto!!!!

He saw the funny side later.....much later......☺

I have no idea if gness has any interweb access whilst away, but for the benefit of the worried I will share a text which has just pinged in to my phone :

"Arrived Safely.

Weather here, wish you were lovely"
