I've had relatives in sheltered accommodation
who've appreciated the help of teh wardens, and the company of other residents, so I do see your point there. But not all pensioners are frail. Look at that bloke who did the marathon the other day.

That's why I used "and" in that sentance.
And I don't see how giving a tax incentive to do it is anything like bullying people out of their home, it's just saying if you want to do it it's cheaper for you.

Fair enough on teh 'frail'
but 'old' is subjective. And yes, having seen a lot of Flog It / Cash in the Attic, I know a lot of older people are trying to 'downsize'.

There was some discussion between BGB, Amberl and 'Swipe about "downsizing" on here yesterday.
I'm sure you would have had some opinions to contribute to that particular discussion. But enough. I said I wasn't going to get drawn into that subject again today.
