If anyone would like to purchase one, you can order it \link{ www.thebarnesboys.org.uk/\here}. It's called CFolk (as in CF Folk) and contains pictures, mainly kids, of lots of the UK CF community.. well whose proud mummies sent pics in to Livvy, the lady who puts these together, and who has 2 boys with CF.

Please also send on the link by email to anyone else who you think might like one..

Thank you,
SJ x (with a temporary cheerful name.. )

Well you can only view the front cover at the moment.. which seems to feature all their faces in microscopic size.. and I printed it out I can just about make him out.. but don't think I'll be able to describe which one his is! He will be on the July page I think as Livvy (Barnes boys mum) does it according to their birthdays.

I have the 2006 one here (although DS not in it) and they are nice clear calendars. Thanks for ordering Uly.

Just ordered it by paypal, only took a few seconds Think I'll get a few for family as they're a reasonable price.

Thanks Ulyscreams. Yes, they're cheaper than a Robbie calendar.. not quite the same effect maybe but for much beter cause!

Yes She has been in hospital for over 2 months now pretty much constantly because the lung that initially collapsed when she was rushed in and landed her in intensive care has had lots of 'collapsey' periods since but she has just had some german prodcedure done that sticks the lung back up with glue (really!).. it's a lesser form of another version which works better but means you can't have a transplant once you've had that done.. so she obviously wouldn't have that. It seems to be working.. finger's crossed.. so will buy her some time until she get's that transplant she needs so badly. As you will know only too well Misdee

She is a very clever pink and smiley girly. Worrying about "waiting for the call" keeps me awake at night sometimes even tho I've never actually met her. (Fear of the future as well I suppose.) Was supposed to meet her at Hyde park at the Emily's Angels run on 3rd Sept.. but MIL died suddenly so didn't make it

Hello Ellbell. Eeek cover blown .. not that I was hiding.. it was just a temporary smiley happy name and I've kept it because I like it

MIL died on 2nd.. she had a brain haemorrhage on the 26th Aug and another on 30th We were up there.. it was awful. DH is still in shock and quite depressed; and all kinds of other 'crap' going on.. (pardon the pun.. and it is a pun if you see thread on SN but don't look if you're eating)

But we're ok so don't panic. Hope you are. Haven't done a chatty email to anyone forever.. no time.. revising for bloody exam which is on Fri 13th (!) when I get a mo.. which isn't often. Don't "do" exams as you may remember.. arrrgh.
