He started to shake convulsively as I approached and just then a young man swept past me towards him and speaking loudly said, " I'm just putting him the recovery position", and talking comforting words to the man who was by now clearly fitting and had wet his trousers. I looked for my phone to dial 999, but saw that several women had come out of a nearby hairdressers and one was already calling for an ambulance. As I walked on I heard the very efficient young man telling onlookers that the poor man was suffering an alcoholic fit. I felt both saddened and pleased by the scene I had witnessed. <br /><br />Tonight we put the ( fortnightly) recycling bin out - as usual it's full of empty wine bottles. At EM Towers we are lucky to be very happy, but many lead sad lives and no amount of inebriation can null the despair. elegancemaisonhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10043236515999573762noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2505385214324438018.post-29329846186711811622015-08-25T14:37:48.798-07:002015-08-25T14:37:48.798-07:00I may have over reacted...I may have over reacted...Rachel Phillipshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16053924416805878169noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2505385214324438018.post-69544651782582672192015-08-25T14:28:27.896-07:002015-08-25T14:28:27.896-07:00Mommy daddy?
