@HenryHorse1

The moment I met my son for the first time. Adopted age 8 months. I had sent a blanket that I had been sleeping with so he knew my smell and a photo album with some recoded messages of my voice. He was sleeping when I first arrived at the foster carers house, when he woke I went uptown his room and said 'Hello XX", he held his arms straight out to me as if to say "There you are mama!". So wish that moment had been filmed!

Do you have a busy weekend planned?

This is lovely ❤️

Weekend plans... work sadly.

Anyone else doing anything this weekend that's more interesting than me?

MydogWillow · 28/08/2021 07:15

Working too Hmm

What has been you most favourite or memorable holiday?

Coffeeanddarkchoc · 28/08/2021 07:32

There are 3 favourites I have - Tunisia, Fuerteventura and Rome. I felt so so happy in those 3 places.

Is there a holiday destination you would never return to?

MydogWillow · 28/08/2021 07:42

Manila. It wasn't the destination but part of the journey. Never felt so unsafe.

Have you ever had any cosmetic procedures?

Lovely thanks. Have just made some greengage gin for the first time ever and am now eyeing the damson trees.

If you grow fruit, what do you do with your harvest?

MydogWillow · 28/08/2021 14:26

Yes thanks. On here while waiting for my shopping delivery. Yay, just arrived Smile

Do you have a regular bedtime? If so, what is it?

MydogWillow · 28/08/2021 14:31

Can I just ask, was that with a dental practice? And has it lasted?
everywhichway · 28/08/2021 14:50

Teeth: Yes, the Dentist did it and it lasted quite a while. Have had it done again since. Not the full Hollywood smile you understand, but certainly noticeable!

That’s a lovely answer
Myusernameisnotmyusernameno · 28/08/2021 23:52

@SwimmingUnderwater aah thank you so
Much 😊

prettyteapotsplease · 29/08/2021 09:19

I suppose I enjoyed - if that's the right word - my secondary education as things seemed to fall into place at last. though there was a bullying atmosphere about the place, adolescence not being a wonderful time for many of us.

Did you learn your times tables properly? Can you recite them now with confidence?

notacooldad · 29/08/2021 09:21

prettyteapotsplease
I did learn them but cant recite all of them with confidence now.
Use it or lose it I guess!
