    :hello:Hi everyone hope you are all well.Had a lovely day yesterday went to a Christopher Street parade which is a gay thing but good fun nonetheless.Also met a homeless English guy thought I heard him mumbling in English so asked him and he told me he had been here 6 years and lost his passport gave him some money but feeling really guilty I did not do more He is not an alcoholic just down on his luck.Anyway out to dinner with our friends tonight who work at British Embassy will see if they can help.Also looked up some shelters and things and jotted down adresses and phone numbers.I know he hangs out at Hauptbanhof so will look for him there when I get advice about the passport to pass on to him.Any other suggestios on how to help?

    :hello:Hi All

    Hi Jo, I've decided to go for 10 AF again in July as I'd rather feel I had a chance of exceeding my total than be stressed and disappointed if I didn't reach it. Thank you so much for 'volunteering' to keep the scores :A

    Had an idea I should let our guest room to some Hari Krishnas to help me sleep!

    Hope you are all having a good day. It's warm and muggy here but I'm still looking forward to my roast lamb tonight.

    Hi all, hot and muggy here too, I really find it hard to deal with this weather, have got bad hayfever too so am feeling a bit low tbh..

    Anyhow tonight will be af and am quite pleased with myself as dh has been on the sauce for the last couple of hours and so far no wine bells yay...

    Jo, Thanks for 'offering' to do the scores on the doors next month hun, can you put me down for 20 a bit more realistic than my June target and I do have a few social things going on in July so it should be a good enough challenge......Sounds like you had a fab day today..they are very lucky having you on the pta by the sounds of it :T

    Got a poorly twin girlie whining round me now, will try to catch up better later...

    Hi Fay, your friend is really lucky. We need to re-design our garden to make it less labour intensive but I don't know where to start! Any advice would be very welcome ( books, websites whatever). Have good evening.
