ON May 15, while on a coach holiday to Scarborough, we had a lunch break in York.

Unfortunately, I had a nasty fall and cut my hand badly.

I would just like to thank the lovely people of York who came to my aid; the beauty shop who took me in, the paramedic who came on his bike, the ambulance car driver who took me to hospital and the wonderful staff at York Hospital who saw to me so that I could continue my journey home.

Thank you everyone.
