German film director Werner Herzog made a film called Fitzcarraldo about a man with a dream to build an opera house in the middle of a Peruvian jungle. Herzog said that he found life impossible without having a dream...fortunately most of us have less impossible dreams...but we need to replace them at regular intervals, or find new ones once they are realised. Sadly as we get older and our time on this planet shrinks the scope for dreams shrinks too.. I think the people who age well are the ones who never lose their capacity to dream and look onwards and upwards.

We have started watching the whole of series 3 of Cold Feet again. Still as fresh as ever, and we missed the last few episodes as we were on holiday.

Because of that right now I dont need a dream as coping statedgy, mu dream is now to watch my children grow up and do my best for them, motherhood is like being Moses, you prepare thr promised land, that you will never get to enjoy for your self.

I hope so.....as long as it doesn't get so bad I start impingeing on other people. Perhaps anyone who buys a house in Spain, especially in Chiclana has to be a little bit bonkers....
Why do they always say psychiatrists and pyschologists are as mad as their patients?? And very many celebrities are completely out to lunch !!
