    Thanks for the info Aesop. I went with full price now but will subscribe for future. DD is now tucking into her tea. I am not hungry so will get something later. Just gong to have decaf coffee.

    Kitty has been out all day. She has an access to the conservatory and she has now left two mice there as a little present for me. I hope she gets back soon so that I can lock up for the night. Cat flap not up and running as yet and even then she would only get as far as the conservatory. Good thing too as I don't want to wake up in the morning to find pile of mice in my dining room.

    Steve says he is skinny dipping on the beach and wants volunteers to join him. It is fREEEEZING. :j

    omg.

    Just come back from seeing Jane Eyre. It was edited as we are used to long dramas I suppose. Mr Rochester was a bit too goodlooking but decent eye candy so we can't complain. The cinema was full of ladies! At one stage he took he jumped out of bed (due to the fire) and put his trousers on. Janet said (in a loud voice) 'dont put them on for me dear!' Everyone laughed.

    Mam had been good today but had started to shout and get distressed straight after my sis, brother, and her 2 greatgrandaughters left at 3.30 pm. When I got there at 4.30 pm, her door was closed and she told to to close it again when I went in. She was very distressed and shouting for her mother and father, and continued through her dinner with shouting and groaning. she did settle a little as I gave her ice cream but still moaning at times. She looked exhausted and was straining her voice when she yelled. I left at 6.30 pm, but as I was talking to carers and nurse at end of corridor, I heard her start to shout and groan again. They said that they would give her 1/4 tablet tonight to calm her down if necessary. They said that she normally settles if they go in for a while but, like last weekend, she had just kept on shouting in their faces today :(

    Perhaps, today has been too 'busy' for her, with too many visitors at once ...... hope she is ok tomorrow
