Back from moving my mother into a 24/7 care facility as she could not cope on her own any longer. She's happy enough but what a lot of work for me and my brother to "downsize" her stuff...glad thats sorted out...a sad but necessary task 😕

I have a couple of batches to base up now and will deliver the final batch of pike and shot to Paul this weekend.
Though much is taken, much abides; and though
we are not now that strength which in old days
moved earth and heaven, that which we are, we are.

Best of luck with that, Peter.
As long as she's happy...That's the main thing.

I hated the idea of my mum's moving into a retirement village, until I saw it and realised how much more comfortable she was with fortifications, quick-response medical attention, and a flat that she hadn't bought to accommodate a four-person family and now occupied and tried to maintain alone. Now I'm very glad she's there.

Quote from my Father in Law after he had been in a rest home for a few weeks, "Best decision I ever made, should have done it years ago"
We had been encouraging and pushing him to make that decision for about 5 years and had only got him to move in temporarily to recuperate after a fall...

Skin base coated :)

Hair done :)

Are those on your Father In Law ?

Seriously though..... Von's Mum didn't fancy going 'into a home', at all....And for the first few days she was there she was very agitated....and fell over three times in the first couple of days.

She's as happy as a pig in poo now......Constant 'supervision'..help 'on tap'.... and folk to interact with.  :)

Cheers - Phil
