A significant step forward

Looking back, I had hoped and indeed expected to see good physical progress for this month of August, but that didn't happen.  My first two August weeks definitely did not go to plan, instead I was hamstrung with some pain and inflammation. I am not talking anything of the pain levels of the early months of this year, but just sufficient to stop me getting out and about.

That changed dramatically three days ago.  I'd booked myself into Cropredy 2016, Fairport Convention's annual folk music festival.  When I booked the ticket I had a real hesitance. I asked myself many questions
  • could I actually get there?
  • no chance of camping, 
  • would I need a mobility scooter?
  • what if it rains badly which could be very bad news for walking, 
  • how on earth would I get up if I slipped?
  • would a slip have consequential health issues, like a broken joint?
  • what would I be able to eat?
  • how would I get plenty of water?
  • how would I get in/out of camping chairs?
