First, take no notice at all of this lot on here. They are all as mad as a box of frogs.
If it is wisdom, clear thinking, sensible advice, wide ranging knowledge, respectability, life experience and a mentor who is NEVER, NEVER wrong you are after, look no further. I am at your service. I am also modest, although I keep that quiet.
Seriously, (and I can be) your life seems to be pretty full on. I'm sorry for the sadness you have had to cope with. Your family sounds well adjusted and getting on with their lives successfully. Well done you.
Looking forward to getting to know you.
On a different subject, who waved their magic wand and sorted out our problems? Thank you so much whoever you are. Oh, the relief of accessing the forum immediately and in the right format. Fingers crossed that nothing else untoward happens.
