Lift Fear

Crash has a fear of lifts. When he was younger he was in a Westfield lift with Rowdy and Mr Chic and the lift got stuck and they had to wait for it to be moved to close to another floor so they could all climb out. So I can understand the fear. Funnily enough Mr Chic will avoid lifts as much as possible because of Crash's fear. I however, just carry on as normal and don't make a big deal over it and try and make the lift experience fun (get him to press the button and make faces at him when the lift is moving and talk to other people in the lift). If Crash catches a lift with Mr Chic he gets upset, with me he's fine.

Anyway, yesterday Mr Chic went to Westfield and the entrance he would usually drive into was busy so he drove around the other side and ended up parking in the basement, instead of on the roof where he would ordinarily park. After going to the doctors, getting Hungry Jacks for lunch and doing various other shopping he told Crash that they had to catch the lift back to get the car. Into the lift with much hysteria and carrying on from Crash and up to the roof-top level they went. Only to discover his car wasn't there which is at the point he remembered he'd parked it on the basement level. Back into the lift they go......................
