I'm sure he'd soon change his tuneif he *landed up in some care home (*which, at the age of 90, cannot be all that far off!) being nursed by smiling, hard working Filipinas, cheerfully prepared to constantly replace his diapers,
wipe his
and dance attendance on his every whim ... with scarce a word of complaint.
As far as men was concerned, she was a right barracuda, the relationship lasted two dates before I got sick of being used as a free ATM/subject for her billions of photos to put on her facebook, but one thing was unquestionable - that she was committed to the old folks in that home. I saw her cut her day off short to go in because people were ill, and all she would have had to do was pretend her phone was off....but she didn't.
Same thing another ex (I know, I know) who is Indian. She is a staff nurse, and works mad hours (As many nurses do), and for her, sleep is something that happens "sometimes".
Did either of them complain? No, never as far as I was concerned. In the case of the Indian lady though, she and I never stopped being amazed at the number of people ready to give racial abuse, at the same time she is approaching them with a needle
Indeed Jimmy Young, you really need to wake up and smell the coffee. Plonker!
