the 11th

it would have been mum's birthday today.
this was her very favourite place to be.

i fear that new taxes may make it impossible for me to stay in the modest small home our family have looked after since the 1950's.

feeling a tad depressed.

there will be many families unable to pay any proposed increase in Council Taxes - so homes will go to people who want to do AirB&B and pay zero tax in this country.  it's a mess.
