“What’s that up ahead?”
“A bus shelter, but why is it lit up at this time of the night?”
“There’s a bundle of rags… No, a person, a person in a white nightie.”
“An older woman in a white nightie, I’ll call the local old peoples home.”
This is a missing person announcement. Thelma Jenkins was last seen walking south in Braidavick wearing a nightie and pink slippers. She has white hair and walks with a limp. She does not know what she is doing. If you have seen her please contact the police in Braidavick or your local police.
A car arrived with two carers. “What are you two children doing here? It’s very cold too.”
We helped bundle the old dear into the back seat of the car.
“We are not children, we are adults, we are Evelynn and Arthur.”
