Thanks but no thanks. I think I'll pass.
If Aunty receives any sort of funded care they will be looking for evidence of savings. Above £16,000 could be a problem.

It's a central government created problem but I won't go any further.

I thought that only happened if they were in a home. If Dave's aunt is funding her own care totally, then they can go whistle. It's none of their business what she has. Bloody government

Morning all.
Another sunny warm day here withno breeze.
A spot of tidying up in the garden has been done and a spot of bike fettling also.
Now waiting for the fortnightly Sainsbury's delivery.
Have fun everyone.

Dears, The infrequent poster here, can't believe it's been so long since I last posted. I've been very active though, I've had two hospital procedures, a bit of physio on my knee, been away to The Jurassic coast, been away to Italy, done lots of peddling especially on the Sunday rides. If you follow The Fridays on Facebook you'll see last Sundays ride led by our very own CharlieB of this parish was a good one. I've also taken up Golf again, managed to find a decent set of clubs on Marketplace for very little money. Been to the driving range a couple of times to whack a few wayward balls. It's my 73rd birthday tomorrow and my boy is taking me camping for the weekend to see The Royal International Air Tattoo at Fairford. Busy day now sorting the old tent out.
I'm loving this weather it does the old bones good! :smile:
Stay safe folks keep cool :okay:

Back from the park, no deer this morning but I did locate the “ lost pond “ that shows up on the old ordinance survey maps. I’ve been trying to loosen the seatpost on Mrs Tenkaykev’s Roberts but I’ve had to admit defeat after two
days of spraying, twisting and whacking with a hammer on a wooden block. Time for lunch and a glass of beetroot juice.
