caught walking instead of wheelchair

I wondering if somebody can help me?
I'm wheelchair dependent because of spinal stenosis. Apparently one of my neighbours has videotaped me walking briskly around my garden doing odd jobs, can that be used against me with the DWP? I've been on mobility allowance since 2002?

You know it can be used . Walking briskly around your garden doing jobs to me isnt wheelchair dependant . If you need a wheelchair to help you get around thats different than depending on a wheelchair . What do you mean apparently ? who has said what ?

My neighbour has jealousy issues and I think I recall the day when I was in my garden and I don't recall me walking briskly, I was in pain and on double crutches. I far are you ment to walk with them if you have a mobility car?0

i'm just a little worried thats all.0

if you have been totally honest in your claim, and told them that sometimes you can manage with crutches, then there wont be an issue.
if you have said you can NECER walk ( even with crutches) but can only mobilise using a wheelchair, then by your own admission, this is untrue0 -
If you have a genuine claim, award and entitlement to DLA mobility then you have nothing to worry about.at all......0

I'm wheelchair dependent a majority of the time, I was having a good day that particular day. My neighbour and I used to be good friends, we had an argument and she said she has video evidence of me walking around my garden going back to July, I don't know if she said that to worry me and be spiteful but I was on crutches. I would like to know I far can you walk on crutches.0
