Pottery Chatroom Board

Katie, Sylvia is an 81 year-old diabetic, and that will always raise red flags with health authorities when the person lives alone on a large (5 acre) property.

The spare bedroom is necessary to keep things 'legal'. It's against the local authority laws to camp permanently in a motorhome on private property - it's supposed to be located in a licensed van park.
But having a bedroom in the house gets around that.
It also gets around the fact that Queensland Health want Sylvia to have a live-in carer/companion in order for her to continue living here.

The mowing is not too hard as she has a ride-on tractor mower.
