Mmm I am not sure if it is an existence of being weary and tired, but how can we ever know what the experience really is like? But yes a better visit than many before in some respects, but then we learn not to have high expectations as time goes by. Its interesting that once upon a time it was me that used to get a telling off for putting the wrappers back in the Aftereights box
. Simplicity is the way to go though as mum saw the Battenberg cake box and the Aftereight box her eyes lit up and she commented on them being her favourites, though conversation was hard she managed to express her delight at the goodies. The first phrase was jumbled when I walked through the door, but it had my name in it -so some recognition just unfortunate it's all jumbled up speech.
Were you ever guilty of eating all the soft centres, something I used to do and annoy mum because she would try to save them till last -oh well now she has them all to herself
