Bad Pilates disciple


One of my neighbours, who is in her early 80s, needed an urgent ambulance on this morning, her unit is one of twelve with a narrow shared driveway.  It took time to stabilise her and the ambulance was in the driveway for upwards of 20 minutes. During this time her next-door neighbour was huffing and strutting up and down past the ambulance both hands on her hips. She eventually came and demanded that the busy paramedics had the ambulance moved  as she was very late for her Pilates class.  Well I secretly hope she never has the misfortune of throwing her hip while pulling a half lotus, imagine if the ambulance needed to block the carpark and rudely inconvenience others in order to get her out!
