    Gemmzie, I know how you feel. My mum keeps talking about selling up, and although I know it's best for her it'll be strange seeing someone else living there. I had a real wobble last year when she got rid of all the furniture she'd had all my life, it sounds silly to get emotional over 'things' but it isn't. As for helping them, you've done all you can (and more than most would have done).

    I've just got back from signing up for Russian, it was cheaper than I thought because the price included registration, which I thought was £10 on top. I need to get saving though because they run follow on courses. Then I got a bit excited at the offers in Mr. T, I got loads of stuff I'd planned to get from other places where it would have been more. If anyone's as bad as me for making lists, they have packs of three reporters notebooks for 25p.
    Unless I say otherwise 'you' means the general you not you specifically.
