    Hello Sue....our paths haven’t crossed for a while

    How’s mam?

    Hi, hope you are good.

    Mum's holding her own at the moment, thanks.
    She/we had visitors yesterday.
    Cousins from London came to see her specially for the day because she missed their youngest son's wedding in December. Brought all the pictures, videos etc.

    I'm a bit of a mess though - if it's not one it's the other:)
    Nothing new, just same old same :(

    Sorry to hear that Sue but I hope yesterday was a nice change for you. I love a good wedding video:)

    Try and keep your chin up Sue. Spring is just around the corner and it will lift our spirits:)
