    Evening everyone.

    Went to see mum and she was ok but a bit quiet today. My sister and cousin visited her today as well. Manager of the home fine about the police being brought in. Thats sorted and they will be meeting me and mum on Wednesday. Have not done anything tonight as Im shattered so off to bed with a book and a cuppa. Will finish kitchen list tomorrow.

    That's good about the Police and the Manager being fine with it. Let's hope that, at least if it doesn't get your Mum's things back, it finds the culprit and stops other things going astray.
