Silly mare :rotfl:
I still have a cold and a sore throat and it's cold and we have had a bit more snow, but I was fretting about going into town as I have a 20% 0ff voucher - valid this week only - which I was going to use to get my next year diary and wall calendar.
Then I realised that even with a box of C** cards I would have saved less than £2 and there was no way I would have been in town without deciding to have a coffee.
You do the maths :rotfl::rotfl::rotfl:0 -

Thanks Dusty and Triker it is a problem that keeps occurring (blood in urine) but it often triggers TIAs and sets his dementia off to a new level each time. It has been a nightmare getting them to tell me stuff this morning. Visiting isn't until 3 and I feel guilty that I can't go earlier but OHs brother is going to pop in at midday and try and see him. Being immediate family they will probably let him, I don't want to push my luck.MFW 2025 No. 7 £1931.07/£2700
