Hi, I don't know about the rest of you but I am sick and tired of hearing about how the elderly are living longer and being blamed for everything from housing shortages to hospital bed blocking and running out of care homes to put us in. We have contributed longer than anyone else and we are encouraged to eat well, keep fit and remember to get our flu jabs. This countries population has increased by about 5 million in the last 15 years but the services have not increased with them, give us a break. Mike.
