  • Well i am fine. Was my sisters birthday yesterday. Her first one since my parents split up after just over 40 years marriage. Basically for loads of stupid different reasons it kicked off with upset for a few family members. Knock on effect of the split. I always said, Things would never be the same. Oh i was right. Probably more trouble to come. I have taken a bit of a back seat. I have my own household to deal with. Really wish life could be a bit more simpler.

  • Earlier this evening I was eating mango chutney made by A_is_A's neighbour some 4300 miles away!
    On my second cup of gorgeous Black Cherry tea, also sent over by A_is_A

    Indirectly A's loveliness sparked off a lovely group Twitter-hug including Alison.

    This place, for all that niggles some, really does do the honours so often. Therefore feeling cosy, regardless of the howling gales outside :)
    A million fires before your harvest comes. To burn out.

  • Had a really nice evening with friends and lots of laughs etc. Got really upset when I found out an old friend from school who I'm still in touch with on FB lost her Mum in May. She had been misdiagnosed by her doctors until she found out she was "riddled" with cancer and was too late for them to do anything for her. I nearly bawled my eyes out in the restaurant as she was such a lovely lady and didn't deserve a sad death like that. She looked after me a lot like I was one of the family and just regret not keeping in touch properly with the family instead of the usual "hi" on FB. Tragic :(
  • That's a sad tale, Helen.

    There is often no rhyme or reason with illness & passing. A couple years ago my Mum's best friend - they'd known each other for over 60 years - developed Alzheimer's and at one point couldn't even recognise my Mum, and eventually died aged 76. Particularly sad as she had bloomed late in life, going to university (Cambridge) in her 40s and had then written several novels.. very bright woman.

  • But glad to hear - apart from hearing that news.... that you had a nice evening out. :-)
  • ^
    Yes it was a great evening. Just that news knocked me for six. I just can't believe it.
  • My kid refused to go to School. Horrible day.

  • i'm a bit confused, threads seem to keep getting deleted! haha, i bet someone got a right bollocking this morning about putting those films up on line! 

    ^ i'm enjoying a bit of agents of shield too sartori! its a bit of a guilty pleasure though.
  • Just 2 threads were deleted, both to do with the premature videos. No doubt an arse or 2 was booted!

    I watched the SHIELD things too, thought the 2nd one was a bit too formulaic. Having said that, will prob watch again!
  • I'm excited as my mum is coming over to Ireland tomorrow to hang out for my last weekend here. I'm also very content after having a lovely day out in Dublin today with our very own Una - joyous chats and fun :)

    Aside from those lovely things, my mind is occasionally still wandering back to last night.. Camille O Sullivan in Shakespeare's 'Raoe of Lucrece' - traumatic, beautiful, heart breaking. AS IF that woman could get any better. (I am still relatively traumatised.). Tonight sees the "Threepenny Opera" at the gorgeous Gate theatre. So I'm also excited. Dublin theatre festival is excellent.

    So many FEELINGS.

Howdy, Stranger!
