Just nipped over to photo bucket.............could have sworn I had some pictures of the garden in full bloom............but no.

Got a fab one of me and Bess during the snow we had back in 2010/11

Scary :egad: where's yer face ?

[JackieClaire]

Under the hood...........its a massive fake fur winter coat.

2010 it must have been because it was my first AF New Year in 8 squillion years...............got up 8am ish and ran round the garden bare foot in me nightie............then I made snow angels.............then the nice men in white coats came.........but that's another story.

[JackieClaire]

Miserable existence when you look back...............and the relief, the absolute relief when the penny drops with a gigantic clang that we don't have to live that way any more................shit just teared up there.

winter of 2010/2011 was freezing. below 0 by a lot, a lot of the time. village got snowed in as the main road got iced up. its the main cross country road to cambridge so normally busy. i remember being so cold all the time.

[satz123]

Yeah that was the year of the MAD snow.
Got stranded in Glasgow Airport - in late November - flight cancelled
That was the start of it. Temps down to -13
White Christmas morning too
It didn't thaw 'till February.

[JackieClaire]

Morning Roxxxy,
You know I don't remember being cold. Our estate was difficult to get out of but the big roads were clear.

[JackieClaire]

Not quite on me ownio............had quite a cheer leading team.

[JackieClaire]

are we 'over the moon'

I think it has a lot to do with getting honest with myself.............I was fooling no-one but myself.

[satz123]

God - I really think I hate alcohol for what it did to me & my family.
I don't dwell on it but so many wasted years .......................... rows, things said .......... could have been avoided.

Ah well - on with the rest of my life ................ I am now so proud of myself again ............. had forgotten.

[satz123]

ach I fooled a few along the way:happy2: don't think Joe still has ANY idea how much I drank at the end --- he doesn't WANT to know --- anytime I go/went to tell him he'd shush me haha!!! right I'm off --- Joey is having a crisis now --- apparently he needs to PUT ON WEIGHT -- oh ffs -- so wants to know would steak and salmon be a good breakfast for that ---- eeerrmm prolly son --- but I'd be a tad broke --- stick with the cornflakes:congratulatory: laters gaters x

Tell him eggs Molls - I've seen the gym lads have up to 6 for breakfast to build muscle ..... if that's what he's at ?

[roxane]

YUP --- we both did and that makes it so much easier -- but (cliché-watch Rox) at the end of the day ----- WE/YOU/I had to 'do it' -----

i love clichés, more the merrier.
