It was always ‘family’, not the property that decided for ‘Home’ on that TV prog ‘A Place In The Sun - Home or Away?’ It was almost always the wife that took that position: occasionally both but never the husband alone.
The difference between the property choice ‘home’ v 'away brought tears to the eyes.
I saw a bumper sticker once “If I’d have known grandkids were this great I would have had them first.”
It’s clearly a might powerful emotional ‘engine’. My mother was even prepared to fight it out with Death . “I’m not going [sic] until I have grandchildren”
Sorry, mum …
