I'm not coping with the demands of my elderly mother, something happens and she presses the careline button who then ring me and ask when I will get to her. The ambulance came from another county 6 hours later the other night, I arrive before them and have to lift her, ten falls in three weeks with numerous problems. I've…
I'm clumsy and I want to hear your funny stories to cheer me up. It's not that I think we should laugh at each other's misfortune but a problem shared is a problem halved. In the last few months.... Lying in bed, watching a video and holding iPad above my face. O dropped it and had a serious (very serious!) chin graze. I…

I'm 70. I don't know how many years I have left but I emphatically do not wish to spend half of them correcting other people's mistakes. In the busy run-up to Christmas Mr SW and I spent virtually two days sorting out the mess that BT/Yahoo had created for my email account when Yahoo got hacked into. Today it was my ISA.…
My late parents' house is being emptied. This was the house my older sister Sue, my younger brother Andy and I all grew up in. The house has been in my family for about 46 years, so it's a long time. Seeing the rooms becoming empty is such an odd feeling! We have given a lot of the bigger items to the local Hospice shop…
