    It’s only that tidy because it’s a new shed. How long it lasts like that is another matter.

    I wouldn’t be surprised if he’s intolerant to something. I think it might be gluten as he has a lot of bread and it’s also in beer. He doesn’t have much milk but he eats cheese so it could be lactose.

    I think you have made the right decision to WFH on Monday, Greenbee makes a good point about making a list in advance of the items you want to mention, questions to ask. Do you keep any sort of diary of his accidents? They could find this useful.

    SA can't tell from photo, but I am concernd that shelving might not be fixed to walls, mental picture of Mr SA blundering about in there and bringing the whole lot down on himself, or liadinf it up with junk so it is not stable, perhaps your DS could have a look, or ask your nice shed man about it. I mention it 'cos I have seen it happen.Take care.x

    Yes I’d had colonoscopies previously but when they wanted to do an endoscopy also, I insisted on a general anaesthetic.

    That’s why his stuff is in the tool boxes in front of the shelving. He also has a toolbox he keeps in the house. He doesn’t garden or paint so there’s nothing on the shelves he’d need. At the moment he’s struggling to get in the shed at all as it’s too high a step up for him. The shed man is coming back after his holiday so I’m going to ask him to put a step up to the shed.
