Wellington - day 3

The view from the balcony. I have been reliably informed that Paul McCartney's house is next to the white house behind the red tree, honest
Georgia, the Occupational Therapist, came in at noon to show Margaret and Nicola how best to operate the wheelchair and took them down St John's Wood High St. She had Margaret practicing speaking out the names of the shops; her favourite is Orland & Barnets - work it out. They then went for a stroll round the park.
I, in the interim, had spent several hours getting some new pyjamas and jogging trousers and explaining to several staff, when I counld find them, in Debenhams, Marks, C&A, Matalan and a fancy lingerie place why I was dismantling the bra's in their displays. Do you know how difficult it is to find a sports style bra that does not have clip fastenings at the back. By the way Marks had a good deal on with a twin pack for £16.....
Anyway even trying the sports shops I eventually found ( 1 ) in the correct style, which I bought, but not surprisingly it didn't fit. The only cup I am interested in now is one with coffee in it.
Nicola and Margaret decide on Sundays Lunch and dinner.

This preamble leads me to the highlight of the day, or maybe the second, you decide.
Margaret wanted her photograph taken out on the balcony and, as you can see, she rose to the ocassion. I am sure you will have a large smile when you see the photograph.

Good news 2> Margaret surprised herself tonight when she sat on the chair, after a spell on the balcony, and instintively crossed her legs, right knee over left knee, and she was estatic.
It was a funny moment. I videoed her doing it again and will try later to upload it
Video to follow
Tea time again.. She nearly choked on her melon starter when I lifted the silver cover off her main course; there was a WHOLE chicken, with the trimmings.So she ate heartily while watching Strictly Come Dancing, her favourite programme.
Finally I got my orders for the washing I had to take home, what she wanted brought up and find the hoover, I told her I lost it !
