Morning All. 
Another good looking/feeling day here.
Her cousin (a Merkin) arrives today to stay for "a while".
The old gal is getting worse. She was unable to get out of bed unaided yesterday.
This is a key moment because if you cannot get out of bed and you need a P or a Pooh, what happens?
Wifey is being dragged down by all the cleaning up etc. etc.
Anyway, have a good day.

Ask your local Council for a referral to the Adult and Older Persons Unit, an assessment by Occupational Therapy as her needs have changed. As has the Moving and Handling procedures, this should trigger a review by District Nurses covering toileting needs ...

The daft thing is that everything we provide to help her she refuses to use.
We fitted a raised toilet seat because she was trying to go standing up (cannot sit/stand easily) she just ripped it straight off and continued to pee on the floor instead from a great height. I think she would be better with 24x7 care in a home, but she won't have it. It is all rather sad.

If she has diminished capacity, it may be in her 'best interests' to go into a home, the choice may be removed from her if she is a danger to herself ...

Soapy water should work ok. More info on your little horticultural problem ----
Lupin aphid / RHS
First detected in Britain in 1981, the lupin aphid has become widespread in Britain. This large grey aphid can be found on annual and perennial lupins often causing plants to wilt.

Used ma hippo's cleaning sprayer to give me lupin bugs a taste of fairy liquid. Quickest option eye has. Tis going to be a bumper year fer lupins. They have bin self hatching themselfs. Gottid 15 pots. 2 of them have 10 bud fings each, which grow into flowers. More buds coming. Some have purple flowers starting to grow.

Well you have obviously been more bothered to look deep into it than me!So they coat them in egg white's the thing you hate the most
No idea, all I ever saw was them being fried by ma in law.
I hate egg-white in boiled, poached and fried, but it's OK in omelettes and scrambled and bizarrely in egg sanqwidges. Also like meringue!
I do hate it but not as much a liver or, for gawds sake, kidney. Not keen on fish much either.
