....kinda

Mr KC, our daughter and I went out for a mooch at the local nature reserve earlier. The Small One was dawdling and wanting to be carried, so she jumped in with me in the wheelchair and strapped in. Off we rolled in the usual way, down the hill. Whizzing past all the people on foot, kinda smug-like. Sunglasses on, wind in our hair etc.

Being a sensible wheelchair using mum, I slowed down for the bit where the path is broken and potholed, except.....

......I misjudged it. I blame the fact that The Small One is so tall now

Anyway, we came to an abrupt halt and tipped over forwards in slo-mo. Thank goodness for the seatbelt and me putting my hands down. The Small One was strapped to me, kinda Matrix-like looking at the ground but only touching it with her knee.

She was obviously frightened but unhurt. I've got a dent in my knee (bad leg) and I had no idea Mr KC could cover 100m faster than Usain Bolt, all whilst wearing hiking boots (the Guinness people sadly weren't watching). Anyways, I got us unclipped, turned the chair back on its wheels and got my arse and my child off the gravel just as Mr KC skidded up to us.

And the worst bit? The man and his wife who I'd sailed past a few minutes earlier, genuinely concerned but perhaps also slightly amused... His wife handed The Small One her zebra back and rearranged my bag for me

FYI - The Small One is 4, she rides on my knee all the time, and I wasn't being reckless, before someone feels the need to say so.

It'd be nice if we could go mooching along and not tip over because the path is broken...

Anyway, all's well that ends well. We had a nice mooch and had lovely homemade pizza for tea

Brighton - even Hove!

At least nothing was injured except your pride.

Oh nothing worse than falling in public. Trying to pretend you're ok and maintaining a stiff upper lip.

In a ball gown because that's how we roll in N. Devon

Glad you're both ok.....

And at risk of you thinking I don't actually care (I do)

Could you ensure someone is filming in future please?

Ha! I've filmed myself before, actually our daughter held the phone once on a little downhill whizz. But I can't film myself when I've got her on my knee - I actually like to keep both hands free to steer

I fall over all the time. Sometimes no broken pavement is involved

Me too and I swear door frames move at the rate I walk into them

He was too far back to capture this spectacular event on video

The trick to falling, is to style it out... throw a forward roll on the end, hold your arms out wide and wait for the judges to award you points.

We're fine, thanks. My knee is scraped but that's the only physical damage.

My street cred (what scrap I had)? Pooooff, gone!! Oops

Pimp your chair and wear a balaclava. They'll never recognise you if you pass them again

Is the image of us staring down at the gravel, Tom Cruise-like, held back only by a PYC black strap, not enough?!

I'll have to mend some of my pimping. My cup holder attachment point didn't come off as well as we did

I was wearing sunglasses

You'd have had a better laugh at me trying to keep the Small One calm, while we checked out the gravel, whilst I fiddled with the fucking buckle with a totally-not-dextrous gloved hand

Homemade pizza can solve even the most mortifying of experiences. I'm glad you're all okay x
