We stay overnight because the three-hour journey on the A1 is quite tiring and we get to see her in the afternoon and the following morning.

The evening is a bit of non-time so we went to the cinema to see the Kingsman. This is a bit of a spoof movie and Colin Firth makes a very funny "James Bond". The film is totally over the top with heads exploding and fights where the hero always walks away totally unscathed. We enjoyed it as an evening of escapism but no way does it compare to some of the recent films we've seen.

Jane's mum is doing ok for someone of age (93) and although she is now confined to her bed she can hold a conversation and her memory of times past is still good.
