If you're interested the electriccentury.pl tumblr has more pics, vids etc, including details of how to download the album legitimately for free if you don't already have it.
In completely different news. Had a sad night with nanna last night. My uncle has been there at night for the last three days and he'd mentioned how some distant relatives had asked him and my aunt to go visit them for a while. He said he wasn't going to go at the moment but it had hit nanna hard that if he did go away -- or if we wanted to go away for any extended period -- she'd be stuck. It was horrible seeing her last night, she looked so sad and talked about being a burden and said maybe it was time to get social services involved.
Which I agree with, but it's always had to be her decision to make. I went to talk to Kayleigh after, as her last job was actually caring for people in their homes, and she said one of those roles was going to people's homes and helping people into bed. So it's perfectly doable, just the arrangements need to be made and assessments made.
I have to admit, I'm a little annoyed at my uncle who seems perfectly happy to sit back and let me and James sort things out like this. I mean, yeah, he's had no experience of social services and getting aids etc, and we have. But he seems to be taking no interest at all, even to the extent of asking for numbers and then calling himself.
So, that's the plan for this morning. Then this afternoon we have to take mam to a medical thing, and then maybe after that we'll get to enjoy this sunshine. Really what I want to do is go swimming, but there's no chance of that yet.
Finally, I enjoyed Ghostbusters so so much! It was fantastic. Though I did question the thought process of taking a toddler to see it, and got annoyed at the three young boys who decided not to sit in their own seats but claim couches instead. Which in itself I'd have ignored, but the constant talking and using of their phones not so much. Thankfully they got moved and the man they ended up sitting in front had no issue in telling them to shut up and sit down.
