After reassuring the neighbours that we weren't burglars, Egg and I met Ms. C's son at her house. Our task was to move a hospital bed from upstairs, past the chair lift and into a downstairs room so that she can come home from hospital.

We started by clearing some space in the downstairs room and then it was onto the hospital bed. Despite both Egg and I having been on previous separate missions to move hospital beds, and both remembering that it was tricky to work out how to dismantle them, neither of us could remember how to actually do it - just that there were definitely no levers involved!

A bit of googling later, we managed to dismantle the bed and get it downstairs and reassembled, ready for Ms. C's return home.
