Good morning. A beautiful day in Lancashire which I will spend on the allotment. Just spotted I've missed two days here......I thought the clocks only went back an hour......mine seem to have gone 48 hours forward.

I've been awake since some ungodly hour but got a lot done. It's my son's financial assessment with LCC regarding care costs. It's a lot of preparatory work for me. I've also been investigating becoming his legal deputy. We set up control of his financial affairs 17 years ago. The law has changed substantially in that time. A chance conversation a week ago revealed I've probably been acting illegally for 10 or more years. More admin.

Also given my sons POA. With the sad events that will unfold in coming months it seems a wise move.

The last bit of admin. The full PI claim will be going to the tractor driver's insurers in the coming weeks. I've been asked for a lot of information including medical appointments. Get this.
33 appointments
157 hours in appointments
16 hours driving time to attend
520 miles driven
Cost @£0.45p per mile £234

Mind blowing.

With Sue gone I have given POA to my daughter and son.. To quote you, it seemed a wise move.

There are specialised clubs and websites for that kind of activity.
Just saying.😁
Special clubs and websites for pizza and fries?
