Granny's Grumble...

Pushchairs!!!

They seem to be so tricky to manage.  Almost impossible.  So I've practised hard these last two days to get a hold on things and I'm happy to report I now can.  But oh gosh, it's been a struggle!

Every lever,  clip and device is so stiff and difficult to manoeuvre and it's a matter of brute force to get the thing together, let alone use the foot brake with any ease!

Of course, our grown-up children use them daily and know all about their kids pushchairs and their little ways, and very kindly tell us how to work them, but it's not until you simply have to work the chair yourself, that you begin to master its difficulties.

Brute force and common sense, that's it.

Humour is such a redeeming tool, don't you agree?
