Brother is doing much, much better! I think it was important that I was NOT around and he had to do it all on his own. He has an excellent team and a good plan for the future. Thankfully, it includes dealing with issues that should have been dealt with decades ago! I also learnt a new phrase that I'll have to remember; "Be a support, not a crutch!". Thanks to MrsC, acat, and any others who sent up prayers or strength.
Oh dear. More fuckwitterybuggishness from Mr WT. He just doesn't get it. "Excuse me, M'Lud, but remember that order you made? Well I, in my infinite legal wisdom, have decided that it was NOT an order, but more in the way of a 'suggestion' by you, and so I'm not going to abide by it. I do hope that doesn't present a problem for you, Yer Honour". Phfffttt!!!
Cars, micros, laptops; the miracles (and banes) of modern life. I'll add a caravan awning that suffered a massive failure while driving 60 mph in a 30mph head-wind on the Kansas prairie. Thank God for duct tape! It'll have to be replaced but at least we can keep moving! Too bad you couldn't use it to mend your items!! LOL.
Best of luck to 'TheformidableMissC'. I know GCSEs are a big deal in UK education.
