Comes with age I am afraid mate;).
My Mum & Dad sold a big 3 bed semi and brought a small bung a low roof on with probably a 1/4 of the garden they had cos they were struggling with the big place.
Best move they ever made for them:). Mum still has a full garden but Dad has almost no grass to cut:D
Its a bit of a decision to make, but the convo has to be had at some point.

Sod the family you need to think about yourselves now:).

...that I am disappointed to receive my Polling Card for the upcoming local election because it demands that I have some form of photo-ID to prove who I am at the polling booth.
Being in possession of the card is not enough. How many old folks have a photo-ID? How many people will be turned away from the voting booths because they don't drive, don't have a passport, don't have a bus-pass?
The list of "valid" ID's is pretty restrictive. Why are they doing this? We don't have a huge voter fraud problem do we?
My missus has declared "stuff-'em" I shan't vote", but that's not the answer.
Not impressed.

All this about mowers not starting at the beginning of the season. We obvs go through this every 6 months and with the weeds over 1 metre high we can't mess about. So at the end of every season I make sure the motor drains the tank and carb completely. On strimmer, wheeled weed_whacker and chainsaw so all they ever need is fresh petrol or mix. So far never needed qwikstart or strip down nor nuffin. But leaving the country does crystalise the mind towards this.
