Gaaaah! Sheltered Housing And The End Of My Saturday Night Tether.....
Just when you think it's all quiet and routine....normal evening phonecall to the elderly outlaws reveals that a policeman came round to check on them this afto. Why? Because the occupant of the next flat in the sheltered complex has reported himself at the police station saying he has just attacked them.
So....being FIL first we hear is hours later(wouldn't dream of troubling anyone)......lots of phone calls to housing association, police and social services reveal the following:
Housing association will not look into anything until Tuesday 09.00. Phrases such as duty of care negligence, and who's your boss meet total blank wall.
Police happy to relate that the instigator reported in a confused and delusional state and was taken to A&E, and believe he will be discharged.
Social services are on voicemail. leave a numebr and we'll get back to you.
We live 50 miles away. Thatcher was right. there is no society. Thank you for listening.
