May I take the opportunity, through your newspaper, to thank both the staff at Dorchester Tesco and members of the public who came to help my wife when she took a tumble in the car park recently?

There was so much concern and offers of help shown from the public, before the excellent Tesco staff took over, for which we are both very grateful.

We are also extremely grateful to the staff for taking care of our two granddaughters, aged ten and five, who were very distraught at the incident but were cared for fantastically whilst my wife was being attended to.

Although taken to hospital my wife suffered minor head and foot injuries and apart from a beautiful black eye, has damaged her pride more!
