Yes I have @badmemory, I borrowed Mr SA’s scooter when I broke my leg 3 years ago to go to the doctors to have the stitches in my head removed and to go to the hairdressers. I must say I wasn’t the best driver 😬I get knocked down but I get up again (Chumbawamba, Tubthumping)3

Oh dear I am sure Mr SA would be a bit of a nightmare without his scooter but I can see the insurers point as he does seem like an accident waiting to happen or in your case actually did happen when he ran over your foot. Some people on these mobility scooters are lethal but of course they are a lifeline to get them out and about. Does he not have to do any sort of test to prove he can cope with it?I’m a Forum Ambassador and I support the Forum Team on the Debt free Wannabe, Budgeting and Banking and Savings and Investment boards.

Thankfully I didn't run over any people but I did spill the odd drink on the table. I got some very dirty looks too.

Happy Friday 🥂
Just a quick post as I need to get ready to go into town to do some Christmas shopping before meeting my friends for lunch. I’m so looking forward to having the morning to myself to potter round the shops and have a relaxing coffee. Hopefully I’ll make good progress on the few bits I need to get. Mr SA is playing the poor me card saying he never gets to go anywhere 🙄

I do hope Mr SA ends up getting a scooter that suits him! As you say, you'd much rather live with him with a scooter than without one!😱
Cant believe Mr SA is playing 'I Don't Get To Go Anywhere' card!😳. I hope you have a great time with your friends. You deserve the break!😇Finally Debt Free! - July 2016 🌟
