ON Saturday, August 16, I had a fall in Bondgate, Darlington.
I would like to thank all the people who came to my aid. In particular, the owner and staff of Claire Metcalf florists, who were especially helpful.
They phoned for an ambulance and even parked my car for me while I was in accident and emergency.
I was interested to hear the problems they have with the no parking area outside their shop.
Loading and unloading is a particular hazard with over zealous traffic wardens.
As this greatly affects their business, I would have thought the council could show some understanding and be more helpful.
Joan Henderson, Middleton St George.
