    I get the impression that SA has encouraged Mr SA on numerous occasions to join these things to expend energy and broaden horizons and stop him being so bored but he is resistant and I guess transport may be an issue? I don't think life is easy for the disabled especially if they do not drive but Mr SA seems particularly challenging maybe because he has a brain injury too? A shame though as things like wheelchair tennis or even walking football which my brother in law does as he has Parkinsons is a great way for him to get out and meet other people and ease the pressure on you.

    I hope you manage to get some time for yourself this weekend SA and great news on the garden makeover. Mine is so dry I don't feel like doing anything out there.
