I'll have to start writing letters in big capitals.

Tbh, I think he is sometimes too confused. My brother is on 24 hr IT call and I think he is feeling too guilty about that!
Thing is, it kept him going, especially his mind.......

aww I'm sorry to hear that K

I have to use snail mail for my mother as well as she is deaf and technologically incapacitated!

tell your dad to keep it so you can send him photos! that's what I really miss the ability to show my mum what I have been up to and the sheer beauty of this country

good luck
