    Oh god I watched a few of these and they were kinda sad and depressing. Like this old bloke in a threadbare jumper scraping margarine onto a digestive and calling it a meal

      That’s just how the older generation of Englishmen feed themselves. That’s how my Geordie grandpa was after my gran died. Cup of nescafe, a small little sandwich, and maybe a bag of crisps. He was part of the last generation of English sailors. He wasn’t much of a a father, but he was one hell of a grandpa. Unfortunately he’s deep in the throes if Alzheimer’s coupled with a brain tumor.

        Sorry to hear that. My friend’s mum just passed away with both a brain tumour and Alzheimer’s too and it was painful for everyone. I hope you have support and your grandfather is as comfortable as he can be meow-hug
