My Granddad's partner recently went into a home and he's bought himself an Android tablet to try and keep busy. The trouble is he is REALLY REALLY bad with technology, like he can't work out how to send a text on his phone a lot of the time. Like he always gets confused with where to tap to type? He's got a little bit better recently but that's the level we're at.

I'm seeing him tomorrow to help him set it up (he can't connect it to his wifi on his own) and I'm wondering if there are any very easy to use games that he could get? Like crossword games and such? Maybe jigsaw puzzle ones? Any other suggestions would be great too!

Starting this month i had 14/21 playing card pikmin. Ive grown 9 this month and not got a single new one! Is this just bad rng or are some not in the pool of pikmin you can grow this month?

My granddads 86 and not in good health, but still able to look after himself, i just help him with admin stuff and anything tech related. There are no plans to go into a care home yet, and hes been mostly stable for a while, but who knows, he could randomly have a stroke tomorrow.

He wants to gift me ~£20k to go towards buying a house - this is something i am planning to do soonish, like in the next couple of years, my dad plans to help me with the rest financially but needs more time as his stocks & shares have been negatively impacted by current events.  Instead of going directly to me this will go in a disabled persons trust which my dad and i are soon to set up since im unable to work.

My granddad is worried this will be seen as deprivation of capital if he does need carers in or to go into a care home in the future.

How likely is this to happen? What kind of factors do they consider when deciding if something is deprivation of capital vs a genuine gift? Is there anything to mitigate this? What would happen if it is deemed deprivation of capital? Obviously if theres any risk to my granddad receiving care in the future i will not be accepting it.

I'd be pretty useless to them, my job is of no importance, am physically disabled, and have no influence. I guess my only use would be inviting my friends to The Sharing!
