I'm going to try, but I've only the time to catch a bus to just south of Queen Elizabeth Country Park near Petersfield in Hampshire on Saturday and then a fast sprint, or walk across the downs to Rowlands Castle train station and then back home. My wife and I are taking it in turnslast week and this week to care for my 93 year old mother in law. She's frail, unsteady on her feet and now has to use a zimmer frame. On Sunday she will move into a new flat very near to us, with her oldest son.
Her claim to fame was as a Wren in WW2 she was stationed on the east coast of Scotland as part of the team that went out to sink the Tirpitz! She also knew Buster Crabbe, she was not impressed!
For the first time in 50 years, once she is in the flat, she will not have to climb up and down stairs to get to the bathroom.
