Well, the anarchist social workers are back in business. Noela Mackenzie, the oldest member of the CFZ, has been in hospital for a month after falling and breaking her hip in mid-November.
It wasn't a very big break, and all seems fine now. Indeed, she is tootling along on her zimmer frame at a rate of knots, far more confidently than even before she broke her hip, so that is one good thing.
However, after a week or so of negotiations, she was discharged from hospital yesterday. But does an 87-year-old lady with an impressive battery of health problems - both mental and physical - warrant one of the worthies from the Hospital Car Service to take her home?
Apparently not. We crammed the dear old thing into the back of the CFZmobile where she sat next to the Lady of the Manor with a catering-size box of sweet chilli crisps on her knee.
Noela took it all in her stride and seemed to enjoy herself mightily, and was soon back at her flat with her beloved pussy-cat, Misty.
I, however, gave fuel for future generations of stand-up comedians who might look at this blog in search of material.
What do you call a man with a zimmer frame on his head?
We had done the last of the Christmas shopping that morning, and we only have a very small car, and the only place we could put the zimmer frame was on top of me.
Never mind.
Anarchy, Peace and Goodwill to all men....
