Long long ago when I was a working man, many of my clients were care home residents, usually suffering from dementia. Some seemed happy and many more seemed quite unhappy but whatever the case their families (if they bothered to visit them at all...

Childhood memories are precious and I love it when snippets of...

Excellent words that could be describing the sad plight of any of hundreds of small towns in the North of England or the former industrial bits of Britain.
