I have now done
my third solo-practice blindsimming 'dry run'. All as last time until
I got off the bus. The driver told me as he helped down the step that
my friend was waiting for over by the gate. Previously Chris, and
Tony (now in Australia) for that matter, have met me at the bus stop
itself.
This was
different and I heard Chris say that he was over by the gate at the
bottom of the lane and I should go across to him. Which I did, no
problem so far. At the gate, Chris said that I should go through it
by myself this time and start up the lane. He would follow behind.
So, in a stick-sweeping mode, as to a stick-tapping mode, off I went,
following the verge on the left-hand side as I had practised before.
Glad to say it was all remarkably easy both up to the top gate, then
along the concrete path alongside the water's edge to, not the first,
but the third seat now on my right-hand side where I stopped for a
cup of tea. The first time we went, we sat on the first seat we came
to and were invaded by waddling and quacking ducks who thought they
were going to get some food! I was carrying a thermos and some lunch
in my ruck-sack (or what ever they are called nowadays). Chris caught
up with me after a few minutes, having made no real contribution en
route. Very promising
Next week, he
says I will have a real test but wouldn't disclose any detail.
I will report
back then.
Jane.
