Pragmatism

An administrative note:

I will be attempting to go to law lectures from tomorrow.
Therefore will not be available for large parts of the day on the phone (no reception, but I can get texts).
Therefore Andrew (Clasby, tel 09 815 5492 or 027 675 3600) will be running the hospice-sitting roster.

Just get in touch with him if you'd like to do a stint, or (relatives! close friends!) make sure you get the time you'd like and need.

The overriding instruction is this:
- sitters need to give casual visitors the option of time alone with Gerald. There is a family room round the corner that makes this easy - just use it and take a break.

Gerald is now listening to music, and has asked for a DVD and his current book (Brian Aldiss).

He is still comfortable, and has become wry again i.e. anarchic sense of humour. Good fun (kinda).
