Can't argue with that. Run along now, it's mine, mine, mine this end of the Line, Line, Line!


As cute and full of joy as you are, your time at the last post will always be limited.

Concerned about the people of Whaley Bridge whose homes are threatened by a potential collapse of a dam above the town. I have at least two close friends who are affected, one of whom is the CofE viceroy Whaley Bridge. The parish church is also at risk.

I take my hat off to all those involved in saving the dam and the town. They have done an amazing job of reducing the water level. I particularly though, as an ex-RAF engineer, have to say what a fantastic job the crew of the Chinook did in placing over 500 Tons of aggregate so precisely on the crumbling face. That is a huge helicopter to operate in such a challenging environment. Well done to all. =d> =d> =d>
Neither. If it's not on Sky, I don't see it.

On the subject of TV...

The Tunnel or The Bridge?

Just when you think things are going forward smoothly life says no. My parent's house was under contract and near the closing when the buyer suddenly lost her funding. What a mess.

Having to go back to showing the house again is not compatible with what is going on with my father's dementia. Sigh... I wish I had some help, but my only sibling seems to feel he doesn't need to pitch in.

I might have to start consuming caffeine. I don't like coffee so I'll have a coke as I steel myself for more meetings with realtors, doctors, and the staff at the retirement community.

I'm also going to miss the trip to Newfoundland my husband and I had planned. He will be going on his own since he already has the time off. I can't leave in the middle of this mess.

Okay, I am done with my self-pity party. Things could be much worse.

I hope the week is going well for everyone.

Cheers!


I sympathise too, Gill. I am trying to take care of my Mum from a distance since those who are nearer seem incapable. She also has mild Dementia but I feel that her days are becoming shorter now. Next week she will be 95 and, although she is physically well, I feel she has given up and is letting herself slip away. There is nothing I can do but make sure that she knows she is loved. In one month I am hoping to go away to Germany for a couple of weeks but I am wondering now, whether I will be able to. My dad died 36 years ago and she is the last of her generation.
Both are beautiful but, for me, Autumn has the edge.
