Here's mine from A Piece of Justice by Jill Paton Walsh:

It was a bit of a struggle for Granny Vi to get herself out of the car, and up the steps, and into the hotel. She was frail, and slow. But she gave Imogen the curious impression that she was good at being frail; quite practised and skilled at it.

Sorry folks, but I have been getting an incredible amount of spam. I have adjusted my settings and all messages will be moderated from now on. If that does not take care of the problem then I will have to go to the "Prove You're Not a Robot" thing--which I hate as much as you do.

If your name does not appear automatically, please tell me your name in the comment. Otherwise you will just show up as "Unknown." Thanks!
