Default 1st time in 9.5 months.....

and yeah Ive shed a tear or two......


Ive seen mum for the first time since we left the UK....... a close friend has gone around and set up her web cam.....she is 80 so not comp lit im afraid.

It was nice to see her..... and she cant believe how much the children have changed in that time.....and i look like Ive shrunk in comparison.....

She even showed me my tortoise i had when i was 10 years old..... still goin strong 28 years later.....

Awww Boomie...you've not exactly had a picnic whilst you've been here so no doubt seeing your mum has been a bit emotional

Keep your pecker up. Tomorrows another day.

Luck has a funny way of appearing when you least expect it

Hey boomie,
Thanks. Could never thought such a simple words could carry great emotions..
Thanks for sharing. Appreciate it.
Hope your mom is doing good, and she enjoyed talking to you as much as you did...
