Tearful TV

I watched the Mummy diaries and I am left feeling with mixed emotions, sad because 3 of these wonderful ladies have since passed and warmth as I have learnt so much from it. Vanessa, Pamela and Wendy have, sadly, lost their lives this year. It is with sorrow that they will never know how they have helped other families deal with this worst of dilemmas. Thanks also to Dawn and Carol for also taking part. A lot of what was said was like listening to my thoughts and feelings spill out of the TV. It was brilliant. I would love to see channel 4 do a follow up in 6 months to see how all the families are coping and hopefully lots of positive news.

Thank you channel 4.

Wish upon a star

My call centre has very kindly said I can put up a Wish Upon a Star Starscape to raise money for the Winstons Wish charity that was involved in Channel 4s documentary mentioned above. A Starscape is a midnight sky wall display on which you, your friends and colleagues can stick a star, which is dedicated to somebody who is - or has been - special in your life. I am selling the stars for £1 or more if the person wants to, for more information and how to get your own starscape is in the link below:

Or if you want to buy the stars from me from me please let me know by emailing me and we will sort something out. I will add them to the starscape in Plymouth.

Ice palace

On a lighter note, my colleagues and I are decorating our part of the work area as an ice palace. I am painting all the stalalmite icycles ( Stagmalites as my friend Charlie calls them!) and also making lyrics of Shaking Stevens Christmas song " merry Christams every one" which will go around the area. I will add some pictures when it is done.
