100 yard walk!!

It was my friends funeral today. My daughter took me and my son borrowed my car to go to Coventry, well I almost joined Shelia (my friend).

My wheelchair was in my car and my son forgot to take it out so I had no choice but to walk from the chapel afterwards to the car park as my blue badge was with my chair and as usual at a crem the funerals were queuing to go in and the roads are on a one way system within the grounds and I decided as I was feeling quite good I would give walking ago. Bloody Hell I am fitter than I thought I was but not as fit as I really needed to be to walk about 100 yards (more or less) by the time we got back to car I was huffing and puffing so much that I couldn't even get my inhaler to my mouth BUT I had made it and I am afraid Shelia is going to have to wait a bit longer before I join her :)
