It’s alright kezo you can laugh your socks off. The family just got home, put the step lights on and everything was revealed! They are now doubled over laughing at the evidence of my wobbliness! I’m sure the dogs are grinning at me as well, because they witnessed the whole thing. No sympathy at all for poor old me (once they’d checked I was okay). They have just managed to pull, push and stake the stricken hedge back into position. It looks a bit “second hand” but should recover. My glasses however will have to wait until daylight.
