- Mum arrived last Wednesday lunchtime for a short visit, and we enjoyed a bite of lunch in Cockermouth before coming home to be joined by A's parents for tea (or dinner if you're not from the north of England!)
- It's been nice to have her visit, even though I was at work during the days. Only a short visit though...
- We drove back north yesterday and both took the chance to visit my gran (Dad's mum) in hospital. She's recovering well after falling and breaking her hip in February but I guess there's still some way to go. At least she can get around with a zimmer now though.
- I was staying with my other gran for one night, and was happy to find her in good spirits. She offered me tea and biscuits when I arrived which was a lovely surprise.
- I took them Mum and Grandma to church this morning, and was touched by how they're being looked after there. They're given lifts to the Friday lunches and for church on a Sunday, communion is brought to them at their places so they don't need to walk to the front, and there's a cup of tea waiting for each of them at a table in the church hall afterwards.
- I had lunch with Dad and his wife before driving back home. So it was only a short visit (with no time to catch up with my brothers) but I'm glad I was able to go.
And it was nice to come home to find A had also got back safely from his travels.
