I went to see Uncle Angus today and told Imogen I could only go to the pub tomorrow and not tonight as well. It was OK though as she was going to the pictures with Paul – who she’s not actually going out with. . .Uncle Angus is much better, he insisted that he doesn’t want meals on wheels anymore and people coming round. But it was really impressed on him that if he stopped that then it would be difficult to start them up again if he needed them. Also, mum added that if he did that she would feel that she had to visit him every day so he’s sticking with arrangements as they are. It doesn’t take much to terrify Uncle Angus into submission these days, you just have to threaten to take away a bit of his independence. It’s really sad, because although he’s much better, he’s not half as fierce as he used to be and he seems older and frailer.
