    Feeling queasy but going to vacuum. Can't abide an untidy house. Just found out Mel (darling friend who helped me when i was bullied at work is emigrating to Australia tomorrow). she is one of those people that shoots for the moon and will make it. One of the most amazing people i have ever met! Gosh. England without Mel. Can we cope?

    Not too good at the minute thanks Beanie - last two days, she has been shouting lots and getting very distressed. One carer in particular has been sitting with her to try to settle her, but Mam shouts at her to get out :(

    Girls have you seen this petition on Facebook to ask the Lords to query the changes the Con-Dems are bringing in to the NHS? If anyone has a free moment please can they sign it. One click can save our NHS from being privatised. Sorry to be political but and the NHS may not be perfect now but if they have their way it will be private healthcare all the way and none of us can afford that. Aneurin Bevan and a generation of people fought for us to have the NHS we cannot allow it to be destroyed. :(:(:(

    Yep, but nothing can be done about it - they say people are living longer and longer ....... well, that's ok if they are fit of body and mind, but, when they are so infirm and their mind has all but gone ............. :(:(

    Gonna make some supper now - muller, crunchy bran and melon :D

    Can only agree with you 3dogs.
    No point in living longer if no quality of life.
    Is it a year this month since your Mam went there?
    Enjoy your supper.
    I have eaten rather too much today.
