Back from sea in one piece... with a Distinction in my OU A215 Creative Writing Course. Hurray!!!!!!!
Blended families come with conflicting loyalties and at Christmas time nearly everyone has somewhere else they feel they ought to be. Throw partners into the equation and it gets even more complicated. Since Tom and I aren’t especially hung up about Christmas we’re happy to let our children go with the strongest flow, but I have to say it was a great delight to have the girls and their partners staying with us this year. When such moments are few and far between they become very precious. My stepsons weren’t far from our thoughts either, not least because we had the very happy news on Christmas Day that my elder stepson and his girlfriend had become engaged. Congratulations Dan and Gill, here’s wishing you every happiness together. Tom and I end a year that has seen the fruition of many years work, both of us crossing important thresholds within weeks of each other. I’m really looking forwards to seeing Turning the Tide published next year and it’s been so satisfying, after al...

Also, congrats on a safe return from the sea. xo
I hope the sailing was good - the weather certainly was.
Next - congratulations on your distinction. I know how much that means to you. Glad you got back in one piece. Indeed glad you got back alive - you could have been washed up on the shore six weeks later. That would still have counted I suppose as getting back in one piece.
But great you are as ever on top form.
There, I spect that's the most whimsical comment you've had today!
and you got a distinction! lol. Seriously, I am happy you survived the perils of the ocean, but delighted on your Distinction for the OU writing course.
And what is all this about a biting dog? I shall have to check it out.
Hope your bum's not sore anymore.
Glad you made it back to terra firma safely, and to such good news!
(ps - hope your rump is okay now. That was a dreadful thing to happen:-(
Did you have good weather?
Yammas!
I think trumpet tootling very appropriate and most deserved.
I have been thinking about doing this but not sure I could match that!

Kate - no need to match anything, just be yourself AND DON'T YOU DARE CHANGE YOUR MIND!!
SBS, you are very kind, my friend.
Jeanne thanks, and it's very good to be back unscathed!
Gaelikaa - my nerve seems to have gone a bit, and I have a scar that most people will never see!
I only managed a second grade pass :(
