I know -- sorry -- the point is, no-one will be denied it here at a
later stage because of lack of money alone.

My mother's nursing home cost 1400 sterling a month (considerably more
than my pre-tax income), it is one of the more expensive ones in
Cardiff, but I wanted a good one, luckily she had savings (and the
Welsh Assembly money).
Here private rooms are standard. But they are not necessarily the best
thing, that's what I meant. I now know that the best care goes to people
in the kind of noisy cramped ground floor room I turned down, not the
light airy top floor one I was offered next. But my mother liked that
room a lot, so, I feel OK about it.

that's what I thought
