Hard Fall!?!

So, doing a little cleaning in my lounge, polish in one hand, duster in the other, vigorously polishing all the surfaces, my wrist starts to go ballistic!
Vibrating, alarm ringing and I look at my "smart" watch, which has decided I have taken a hard fall, and if I don't respond in 15 seconds it will automatically dial the emergency services.

In a way it is comforting, but I'm going to have to adjust the settings if only a little dusting is interpreted as a hard fall.
 
We had one installed on my dad but he wore it round his neck! He'd take it off to shower, we told him not to incase he slipped in the shower and he wouldn't ware it going out incase he lost it! It turned out the only time he wore it was in bed! We pointed out he could have strangled himself with it in bed. When he did fall he'd left in the bathroom so it didn't go off, we gave up after that!
Tony you'll have to polish slower.

A real good reason not to dust.

Many moons ago, we were sitting in church and there was a voice coming out of my hubby's beeper. Apparently he was supposed to respond and he didn't, I think that the sermon was interesting. Later on, during Sunday school class an elder poked his head in the door and asked for my husband. You guessed it, there was an ambulance outside.
