ello ello..lol

I am still here honest !

Not been around much, just catching up, and enjoyed all your stories and poems, thank you.

My main reason for not being here is I am doing research for a rellie, and watch this space for a happy ending (or not) But, regardless, I will be writing it all out for all of you, in my very bad prose..lol

Doing research for living rellies is hard isn't it? Please keep your fingers crossed for a happy ending :)

Some first lines for you:


It had to be done.

It was never going to be an ordinary day.

Her foot slipped and she started to fall. (I think I have done this one Lol!!)

The clock struck one.

The birds swoop low.

I knew what I'd done as soon as the door closed.

I remember the day.

(Name) threw her bag on the floor and burst into tears.

It wasn't as if anyone got hurt.

In the end it didn't matter.

The old woman turned and smiled.

There was a definite chill in the air

Hi all ~~~~

Sent out my latest contibutions and thanks for the replies.

Was worried about sending to Daff, so been on her thread and she can stop them at any time. Didn't want to overload her !

Thanks to Rose...those book binders you sent me the link for have arrived. Expensive I think, but they are so good ! Work perfectly for saving all my poems in, and bought one extra for OH family tree. Giving him it next Tuesday for a wedding anniversary pressie ..lol
