My sister in law loved the Four Seasons.  We don't get along all that marvelously but that's another story.  However for example if someone she knew purchased the latest "whatever", she always had to have one too. Forever keeping up with the Jones's.  Unhappy

So when I mentioned I had a couple of CD's featuring the Four Seasons she immediately asked if she could have one of them.  And I was more than happy to oblige.

Don't quite know her reaction when she played the CD, but suffice to say I had a quiet giggle at her probable reaction upon discovering the CD comprised Vivaldi's celebrated violin concerti.  Big smile

John Konrads set 26 individual world swimming records yet only won one Olympic gold medal and Ilsa, his younger sister, set 13 individual world swimming records and never won any Olympic gold medal , yet they are amongst Australia's best ever swimmers.

 they are sometimes a hindrance, as much as a comfort. We virtually had no-one to take care of ours if we went away, so for seventeen years it was a huge hassle to go anywhere. We tried leaving them in vet care but that was disastrous. Now we are free to go where we wish...but travelling anywhere has become a problem.

  Been thru all that with pets.  No way could we leave them in a kennel/boarding.   
Freaked out even trying to get them in to travel carriers.
I inherited my Mums cat, and he lasted to 17.  
We are now very lucky we have a lady who comes in the house and treats them like her kids.  
She has house keys and comes in twice a day, and more if she thinks its necessary. 
So so lucky, as old ginger boy is 12, and Mrs Hava Chat is only 5.

Sad to hear of her passing.
