Sure you can ask, I am nearly 55years old Shazzabazza, and I learned I need to keep moving, otherwise I stiffen up.
Enjoy your lunch! It sounds you still have quite a bit of family around you, coming to see you for a coffee.
It must be a busy time for you, the chatter and catering, when all you want to do is rest.
In a way I am lucky, I can pick my time to Skype them as my family as they live overseas, (and daughter interstate)
Other days, I feel frustrated as I cannot help them or hug them when my mum's had another fall. (mum suffers from Parkinsons and dad is her carer.
I hope you do get some enjoyment out of their visits, they wouldn't visit you and your hubby if they didnt care?
How is hubby today?
Love,
thank you @Grasshopper3
but they never come to visit us i afraid 
I went to my mum`s by myself this morning for a cuppa with my mum who is 85 and she had visitors
mum is still recovering from having a bowel surgery where they removed 15 inches of dead bowel which had died
