I am having a lovely lie in with coffee and laptop. Watched an amazing film last night about the migration of british children to Australia and how this impacted on their lives. The film was called Oranges and Sunshine. Very harrowing but wonderfully acted and brilliant story.

I saw that film a couple of months ago what a dreadful thing we did to those children.

Morning everyone are you better Tips?
Sunny day here in Scouseland so better get the washing out toot sweet as JC would say.

Still grumpy but am going to do something about it today :new:

I'm feeling much better - thanks for asking. I still have a nasty post-nasal drip, but I'm not quite bedridden (except by choice).

Just watched the trailer for Oranges and Sunshine. Looks really good and I love Emily Watson. I'll have to try and see if I can find it.
Off to make breakfast. Hope everyone has a peaceful Sunday.:l

Compared to where I was two years ago, yes very much so. Just that some days it feels like I will never get there. Anyway enough of the pity party, off to finish my bagel & java and the garden awaits.

My children - 100% ok on my side, humping teenagers (sorry Stirly, never explained yesterday - emm moody, complaining, paininthearse =humping re. teenagers in Ireland) messy daughters - ongoing probs - nothing to do with AL consumption. My job - also can be a pain in the arse --- nothing to do with AL -- we may not be completely free of the beast --- but (and I hate this expression, but it is what I mean) the bigger picture --- not bad:l

Thanks Molly I needed to read that too.
I have my health and am enjoying the level of fitness I have now reached.

I have a full house of family here and no privacy most of the time except when I am out running or hill walking. Nothing to do with AL and if I was still drinking it would not be bearable at all.

I love my kids but it is chaos living in my house at the moment. Anyway they will all be gone on the 16th September or therabouts. I miss them when I do not see them but all living here does not work for me---BTW they all love it:H

Thanks Molly yes a little house round the corner would be fab. On the other hand I could go and live in it.

Not to make youse jealous or anything... but it is bliss right now. Mrs. T and the cubs have gone to the local mall so the eldest cub can flog his old PS2 games and buy new ones for his Nintendo. The loudest sound is coming from a dove in a tree outside.
