for me.. i make no excuses..

in my family.. i am the last of a long line of west country male manual working cider drinkers..

but..

my mum is born from more sophisticted city stock..

she's mid 70's.

still as strong and fiercly inependant as ever..

but..



i think we might be reaching that delicate crossover point


when i might need to assert some control over her decision making faculties..


worse case scenario..

she might start regarding me as the 'bad guy'
attemting to struggle control from her "what happens next" lifetime developments..

i'm not even 50 yet ..


..so i defer to the wisdom of older mudcat mates
who have most likely been there.. done this .. and learnt from it..

any advice will be well apreciated..

thanks...
