The Eagle has landed

Posted by Rupert Johnson

Well we have had Nells Mum living with us for the last few weeks and so far it has been not too bad.

After our week away in Scotland I had a further week off and we moved her up from Bristol. Nell then had the next 3 weeks off to help her settle in.
Nell has been back at college working for the last 2 weeks, the carers have been coming in twice a day and things are going pretty well.

Having said that we have had one or two sticky moments were Nell's Mum has suddenly declared "ok I think I will go home now..." to which the best answer seems to be a straight "You live here with us now Nonna" which normally gets the response "oh, I have shit brains, I don't remember anything".

Toms back from his hols and whilst he is looking for a job he is keeping an eye on "Nonna" and making sure the house is locked up when the carers leave.
