A few minutes spare

Not much to report on progress for Ron.  The past few days have been sleepy days.  Last weekend Ron was presented with his trophy which would have been presented at The Classic Car Show at the NEC.  Brian and Joan Ekin from JDC called in on their way home from the wedding celebrations of Len and Gaynor.  The cut glass trophy is very beautiful at least it does not need polishing.

We had a big disappointment this week as the stairlift which was fitted on Tuesday was unsuitable for Ron as his legs were hitting the bannisters - he is too long from hip to knee.  We are now waiting for the lift people to source some more turns and they are going to try fitting it on the bannister side (this way we gain the width of the skirting even with this it will be touch and go, keep your fingers crossed for us.

We booked the S type Jaguar in for a MOT on Thursday, got to Burton End and the battery was flat!  Phoned and cancelled MOT, Went to Stortford and bought a new battery, phoned Ryan who was fortunately working locally and he came and fitted the new battery (very heavy).  Phoned MOT station and they agreed to do the MOT at 1.00 pm.   I got on well driving the Jag and Ron is able to get in and out so we will be able to go to Wales in that - still not 100% sure if we are going to go but I am beginning to hope that we do go.

17th March is a big day for us - bathroom fittings are arriving between 7 and 11 and we have our first appontment with the Neuro physios for an assessment at 11.00 hopefully they are going to be able to offer some intensive physio.  I do now have a phone number for a private physio who comes well recommended.  Our lovely Jenna who has been such a help to Ron did her last session last week it is only due to her work that Ron has made the progress that he has.

All being well we will be well on our  way to returning home.
