My father who is 72 and probably coming up to mid stage A.D has got into a habit of waiting obsessively for postman and recieving much mail from these " you have won a million pounds, just have to send us a cheque for 20 pounds first" theives. Last year he was responding to many of them and altogether sent off 250 pounds. This year he's not actually sending money off anymore, but still sends the attachments back, his wife is beside herself and is in competition to reach postman first to be able to throw majority away! He argues it gives him something to do.
I would like advice on this... my idea is to subscribe him to quiz magazines etc. that can come through the post, I found one on the internet.. compers magazine, a magazine about all the competitions you can enter in the uk, would this be a good idea or make him more obsessive? I need advise on magazines as I live in France and can't just pop into w.h smith and look myself. thankyou.
