On today’s show we heard about the mishaps that have befallen two women – literally!
It was last April that our first hero (sorry, that should of course be heroine) literally fell for a property she was visiting together with her husband as prospective buyers.
Unfortunately she plummeted 30 feet down a well nestling under a wooden board in the garden of the property.
She was submerged in water at the bottom of the well but was able to stay afloat with the help of a hosepipe fed down to her by neighbours until the fire service was able to pull her to safety over an hour later.
Not a pleasant experience!
And nor was the experience of the subject of our second mishap.
This involved a woman who after enjoying an evening at Ronnie Scotts Club in London fell down two flights of stairs breaking her wrist and elbow in the process. Her attempt to sue the club came off the rails after the judge ruled that in addition to being intoxicated and wearing inappropriate shoes, at 18 stone she would have taken up much of the width of the stairway but for some inexplicable reason, did not use the handrail.
A case of gross negligence, perhaps?
See you again tomorrow,
Scott
