Hi Phillis. Welcome to the group and I hope you enjoy all the chat and postings here its a really friendly group and we chat about just about everything. I agree about respect I can't even go in my local co-op and get a friendly asistant my support worker once said if they smiled their faces would probably crack. I agree also with June about home cooked food it tastes so much better and is healthier you can't even go in some pubs now and get a meal cooked by a proper chef rather than some-one who fries up something frozen. YOu very rarely get invited back to spend Sunday with friends after Church either people used to care about some-one who was alone on Sundays or sick or unable to get out for whatever reason just to go to the shops but these days no-one puts themself out even giving me a lift to meditation which is in the town where I live is to much trouble for any-one and they make to many excuses. Take care. Love Sarah
