This, That And The Other

My father-in-law has realised that sheltered accomodation doesn't mean nursing home and was talking about it quite reasonably yesterday. I doubt, though, whether anything will actually happen.

I don't watch many detective shows, but The Body Farm has me hooked. I love the idea of a bunch of forensic scientists living together in a run-down farmhouse with dead bodies festering all around. The autopsy room may not be next door to the kitchen but it's only just down the corridor.  They liase regularly with a policeman played by Lily Allen's dad. He too seems to be entirely lacking in a sense of smell. 

Can pet rabbits spend the winter outside? I need to know. We've never had one who lived in the garden before; he's happy there and we really don't want to move him inside unless we have to.

I'm glad that your F-I-L understands the difference in accomodations for elders. Perhaps he will now come around to making a decision for himself. It's always better for us to make our own decisions (speaking as an elder myself).
I dont know about pet rabbits, but my friend's father raised rabbits years ago for food. Their rabbits lived in an unheated rabbit house, generate their own heat with their bodies I guess. Their major problem was rats that would get into the hut and kill baby rabbits.
That sounds like SOME weird show!

My in-laws live on the side of a hill, too far from the shops for them to get there without a car, in a bungalow that is only partially adapted to my father-in-law's increasing disability. It would make sense for them to move.

Everyone is telling me the rabbit will be fine, so I'm going to stop worrying.
