Haha, can relate to that.

We were in a nursing home waiting room a few years back. Bunch of little old ladies sitting opposite. My husbands in a wheelchair, has been for over 40 years. The tea lady wanders over, hello dearie, you in for respite. Half a dozen heads pop up, with a smirk on their faces.
We were booking his mother into the home. We had free coffee and cake , whenever we popped in after that. Haha.
