Bungalow here :( jealous of your stairs

Damn those stairless houses, damn their eyes!
Thoughts and prayers...

How do you feel about galloping up on all fours?

I love this, makes me smile every time I do it.

Do you really think so? I mean the Gloucestershire cheese rolling wouldn’t be anything like as dangerous going up hill.
I hope your ankle recovers quickly.

Granted, cheese rolling doesn't work quite as well uphill...
But it doesn't take much to miss the step on your giant 2-step leap, or you may catch it on the edge of the stair, and back you go..!!

Thank you for the healing vibe. It's getting there!

I've just got out of the habit of dragging myself up by the handrail, maybe two at a time is next.

How about galloping down on all fours?

Having just broken my ankle falling down stairs, there'll be none of that type of shennanigans in this house for a while!
But, being a Cassandra here, going upstairs is equally dangerous, so be careful out there!

Ha! This has made me realise I used to do this always but don't anymore. I'm going to make a conscious effort!

That’s good. I’ve just restarted as well. I used to go down two at a time but at some point I lost my nerve, perhaps at about forty.

It’s cheating.

Then I am a cheater and will continue to be as long as my body will sustain stair galloping.
