Well it’s been a funny old week; our plan was too possibly to go to
We are expecting Cyril’s sisters and partners this weekend to possible visit and so we need to clean up the place for reasons given earlier. Mady and Ken were also due to come this weekend but had to cancel.
We also went to
Well next Monday we drive to down to Salcombe to see my sister Annette and her husband Peter and we are taking Cyril for the ride. Salcombe is a lovely place if the weather is good and so I hope to get some good photos.
Its not long before we go to

Sounds Familiar
I was recently diagnosed with AAADD - Age Activated Attention Deficit Disorder, which manifests itself in this way.
I need to wash my car. As I go to the front door I notice the post on the mat. I decide to open the mail before washing the car. I put the keys on the hall table, and put the junk mail in the waste paper basket and notice that the basket is full, so I decide to put the other letters on the table and empty the rubbish.
But then I say to myself, that as the post-box is near the dustbin, I may as well pay my bills first. I get my cheque book and realise there is only one cheque left - my new cheque is in the drawer of my desk, so I go to my desk, where I find an open bottle of beer I had been drinking, I decide to put the beer in the fridge to keep it cold.
As I went towards the kitchen a vase of flowers catches my eye. They need watering. As I put the beer down on the kitchen unit I notice my reading glasses, which I had been searching for all morning. Before I put them safely on the desk I decide to water the flowers first and put the glasses down on the kitchen unit again. While topping up the flowers I suddenly spot the TV remote, which someone has left on the kitchen table. 1 realise that tonight when we go to watch TV we will be looking for the remote and no one will remember where it is, so I decide to take it back to the TV room where it belongs, but when I watered the flowers I spilt water on the floor, so I put the remote back on the table while I get a kitchen roll to mop up the water. Then 1 head down the hall trying to remember why I am going in that direction and what was I planning to do.
Now it is evening: the car is unwashed, the bills are not paid, there is a bottle of warm beer on the kitchen unit, I cannot watch TV because I can not find the remote or my reading glasses, and I do not know what I have done with my car keys. 1 try to work it out, why have I done so little today. I am really baffled, because I know I have been really busy, and now
P.S. Thought for the week: More money is spent on breast implants and Viagra than on Alzheimer’s research, which means that by the year 2020 there will be a large elderly population with perky boobs and huge erections and absolutely no memory of what to do with them!
