In this time of council cuts and unrepaired pavements, take care. I just went flying through the air, landing on the ground with a thud, while collecting our daughter from an evening activity.

Fortunately, I’m just left with bruises, gravel-pitted palms and a cut knee. For the elderly, infirm or pregnant, though, it could have been much worse. Such a fall could easily have resulted in a fracture or concussion.

Happily, the most I have to contend with is the jovial response of our kids, who find it hilarious that I almost swore!
