    Going to get Dad one of his faves from years ago for his birthday Val Doonican CD's.......:T, I feel he will also benefit from them, he always used to sing along to his songs when I was a little girl, all he has of them now is the old fashion records discs and they are no good to play now.
    one of his faves here:

    And of course some jigsaw puzzles from my boys, dad used to love doing the smaller sized ones but not going to cope with these size now, so something a little size bigger with the help from one of us and mum it will do him the world of good and keep his mind stimulated......:T:j

    Val who? Is he a rapper?! :D That's a good present to get him, should hopefully jog his memory a bit. :) Jigsaws are a good idea as well. Maybe start off small then increase the pieces a bit each time he finishes one. :cool:
    All the time you're watching your back, you can never look forward...

    Yeah we will get him a few sizes, looks like we will have to get him more playing cards again too, he put the ones he did have at the unit down somewhere but can't remember where..........that's the thing with dementia isn't it?:(

    Ripper?! lol! :D I thought he was called Jack! :rotfl:
    You can pop onto Play.com and check out the Top Trumps cards if he likes that sort of thing. You can get so many different ones now, I'm sure you can find some that he will like. :T
