Bathroom Fittings

It was the bath! Eighty odd year old Annie had thought the problems over moving to the Shelter flat would be downsizing and sending her prized possessions to the Charity Shop and arranging for an Estate Agent to sell her house but when she went to inspect the flat she realised it was the bath. She didn’t need a walking aid or a mobility scooter but the bath was half the size of the one in her old Council House and she wasn’t sure if she could get in and out. She got in and, sure enough, it took her half an hour of struggling to get back out. She was telling her daughter-in-law about it and was asked why she hadn’t pulled the alarm. Annie looked disdainfully and answered, ‘These people already think I’m dilly, where do you think they’d have sent me if they’d found me in the bath with my clothes on?’
