What A Nice Birthday

Posted on November 19, 2008

I didn't expect the birthday that I was treated to yesterday. Diane invited me over to Broughton for the evening and gave me such a lovely night.

What I had done to deserve this I don't know, but if you read this Diane, you are a top cook, and a ...

Hip Hip Hooray 41 Today!!

The play was about children in Victorian times, ...

Recovering From A Bug Amateur Dramatics and Another Reading Win

Posted on November 9, 2008

Wow..... something vicious whacked me on Friday and Saturday my body just fell apart, I was sick, I feinted, my joints seized up, I head chest pains, my head was at boiling point and my whole body was like it was sunburnt, it was actually quite distressing, I thought I had meningitis or bird flu or something hideous like that. I had a text from George saying that he couldn't go to football as he was ill also, I was actually quite relieved as I ...
