I was reading The Birmingham Mail tonight about the alarming increase in accidents in Birmingham especially amongst the elderly!!
Most of these accidents can be avoided if people were made more aware of the dangers in their own house.Faulty electical wiring and loose stair carpets are the main reasons.
Just a thought i'd like to share with you.

Yes -if you can see an accident waiting to happen do something about it-before it is too late

Perhaps 'Elderly of Birmingham' was thinking, it was either Damp Grass or a Duvet and chose the latter
