Morning All

Already been to the big local market for the last of the pre-Xmas stuff. Absolutely heaving at 09:45.
The 90YO MIL is driving us crazy by requesting the purchase of additional xmas gifts that she had "forgotten" to get.
Even the lady wife (who is the most tolerant and saintly person) is getting a bit tired of it.

Yesterday she had to dash up there because the old gal was having a panic-attack and was venturing into "Stroke-out" territory.
This Xmas may not go well. Fingers crossed.
