  1. It’s sad to hear that there still places and people out there that don’t accommodate for people with mobility aids… even I have had experience with that myself earlier this year.
    Its nice foe the shops to have things out on the path to show, but it does take up a lot of space, especially when some pedestrians are oblivious to others around them and stand in the middle of a pathway or door. ☹
