Well, it turns out (after spending two days in A&E waiting for x-rays on a bank holiday weekend) that it's not her hips playing up. She needs a new knee as her left one is so far gone, it no longer locks into place and keeps giving way - hence the falls. Doctors tomorrow to see what they say.

That is what I used to do Dizzycap. It's only in recent years that I've been able to post even though I had been reading all the progress that others were making for a few years before finally taking the plunge and joining properly. The motivation that so many people have - and are prepared to share with others - is, truly, so inspiring

And in today's shamefaced let this be a reminder not to hide a stash too deep, I have £100 in £2 coin and £20 in £1 coins heading to the bank tomorrow as that little sock added up a bit.
A few loose £2 coins have gone into the pig, where at least I can keep an eye on the blighters.Thank you @Bob2000 for encouraging me to empty the sock!

Well lm glad at least you know the cause of your mams falls. Hopefully she can start getting stronger over the next few months. Good luck to the both of you.

You should plonk the sock on the counter to see their faces! 😀.
I make it a rule unless l have at least £20 worth of £2 coins. l dont bother to pop into my local building society branch.
