Its a game you have to make a sentence out of the word then the letters out of that word make another sentence , im not clever enough:rotfl:
I don't think I am either!
Mum playing up and I suspect we may have to move her into a home. She is terrified of that. She suggested it herself a year ago and I did some research and found something perfect near me. Then her 'friends' told her that all places are terrible...0 -

I am sure there are care homes for the elderly are perfectly acceptable - its just a case of doing extensive research and finding them.
If you want to pm me a bit later then I can tell you a bit more - things to look for.“Create all the happiness you are able to create; remove all the misery you are able to remove.

Fortunately they have a hospital bed downstairs now but even so he is struggling to move because he is not using his muscles because he wont move, a vicious circle and one he seems to be giving up on.
Now we have to persuade DS to actually go and see them, took DD down there yesterday, she came all the way from Yorkshire to go and see him, but DS and family have been up to Yorkshire to see his in-laws several times since FiL has been ill, but apparently does not have the time to get down to see his grandfather, less than a third of the journey time and less than a day out of their schedule. I could strangle him, he will not turn to his fianc!e and say he really needs to do it, he tends to do as she wants. Right now I am not happy with him.
This is very very hard. Eldest son only went to see his granddad in the care home once and he never went again. I think my three really wanted to remember the fit and healthy granddad who was living in his own home, they didn't want any other pictures in their head. I never forced them, they were all adults and it was their decision and I don't think they carry any guilt or at least not now.
I think if granddad is declining and his mood is very low that is also very hard to take, its as if they give up. My dad went like this in the space of a week and it was devasting“Create all the happiness you are able to create; remove all the misery you are able to remove.

I have a collection between 11-1 which already shows as collected but APG not available yet. Will keep checking in the hope it's there for you before 12.“Life moves pretty fast. If you don't stop and look around once in a while you could miss it.” ~ Ferris Bueller0 -
Probably too late now but you could always say that you've just been given an electric razor and no longer need them?
Please tell us what happened!
Hi Guys
Thank you very much for you replies. I collected them, all ten of them!!
I was not entirely sure what I was doing so if they only work out at 80/90p then All is not lost. I will keep a couple for me and donate the rest to local women's aid refuge, they are always looking for stuff.
I will let you know if they compare when I check just after one o'clock.
I will just have to pay more attention when the next glitch crops up, at least I'm not majorly out of pocket.
THanks again ladies for the help:o0 -
