Thankyou for letting me know you received the squares, and huge thankyou for helping me out. The response to my request/plea (!) for help was amazing, just shows how many lovely hard working people there are on this forum, who really care.
Jean - you put my efforts of volunteering to shame. Well done on receiving that special award. Many years ago Sir Ian Mclelan, the actor, was on a phone- in on Radio 4 in the morning during half term. His comments created quite a stir in broadcasting but helped me with my understanding of homosexuality. Education is empowering.
I was interested in your comment about working for an AIDS charity - is that your work or are you a volunteer?
I am David'sgrandma because he was my only grandson for 4 years and I looked after him for a day a week before he went to school - I really enjoyed those days. Then within the space of 9 months, David went to school, I retired, having worked an 80% week for a couple of years, and both daughters had sons. So I am now grandma to 3 grandsons. David likes to help me with all my crafting activities.
