Introducing Colin’s story

An introduction to Colin, who has DLB and his wife Gill; who will share their story of how the condition has affected them throughout this week

And that was the last thing I did. No it wasn’t. Not? No, we didn’t– we had our own inventory service. Oh, of course. Sorry. And after that, we went into the inventory business. The inventory business is where you’ve got a house or a flat or something like that, and I would go in and take an inventory of the whole place and the condition.
