    I haven't tried it and wouldn't.

    "Care" isn't quite what they appear to be offering and there are all manner of things that could make it bad.

    There's certainly a growing number of businesses trying to sell that (and very similar) services but I don't know anyone who has (or would) try them.

    Just my two penneth

    I need to find a carer or live in person from mid Jan. It is only in case I fall as I am very mobile around the house. They can have own independent living as the house is as professionally split into two homes.

    Lol! Okay if you decide you don't want the job, I get second dibs.

    Seriously, though, my friend in Norwich had private carers. If you like, I can speak to him about how to go about this. It's a different area, but similar principles or even organisations perhaps.

    @jonf yes indeed I have that advantage, meaning you know there's no way I can make it!! LOL! So we're back to @onlylonesome as first in line.

    What a spectacular light display. Wow! I haven't put up any Christmas lights yet. I'm going to do that tomorrow. Thank you for your inspiration πŸ‘πŸ˜ŠπŸŽ„
