Well done Kim!
Really glad you arrived safely, and I know exactly what you mean about the wheelchair embarrassment

but I'm glad you did it. It's the best way to do things when you have any physical issues (whether legs or not), and at least you guaranteed you would feel as good as possible after your journey.... Shame the guy 'helping' was being a bit of a jerk, but I suppose he might have just been having a bad day!
