We’ve had torrential rain this afternoon…..glad it was only light rain when I went out this morning. I’ve watched the app changing on and off all day - saying we will have snow overnight then saying it’s sleet….then just rain then snow again……ANYTHING could happen 😂😂watch this space. We must be right on the edge.January spends - £587.583

Unknown to me my watch had mistakenly detected a fall while it was in my dressing gown pocket hanging up on the towel rail and I was in the bath. I kept hearing a sound and when I checked it was asking if I wanted it to call emergency services 😱 Goodness knows what happened there!I get knocked down but I get up again (Chumbawamba, Tubthumping)3

I didn’t even know it did it tbh, I was trying to get up and shut it up at the same time whilst crawling to the back door to alert my son I needed helping up …….Sealed pot challenge 822

It can be quite stressful trying to work out if you’ve hurt yourself, trying to get up & stopping the watch doing its thing 🤣🤣I am a Forum Ambassador and I support the Forum Team on Mortgage Free Wannabe & Local Money Saving Scotland & Disability Money Matters.

Does it have a program where it can call someone for you?? Or alert someone??Made it to mortgage free but what a muddle that became
In the event the proverbial hits the fan then co-habitees are better stashing their cash than being mortgage free !!2
