I'm there now with my daughter. I go to stay for the weekend in Newark, about 100 miles up the A1 from me, and she ALWAYS says "Drive safely and ring me when you get home". If I don't ring she rings me to check I'm home OK.

When I split from my ex and bought my own house she got a friend to visit and report back on what the place was like, in case I'd been iresponsible in my purchase. I'm 56 and she's 34. What's it going to be like in 20 years time??? Do I emigrate now?
