    Some of you are aware that two of my three children emigrated last year within four months of each other. My younger daughter to Vancouver, Canada and my son to Columbus, America.

    A year ago tomorrow my daughter landed in Canada with her boyfriend and on Sunday it's her birthday. My son married an American in October and tomorrow they move into their first house together having lived with his in-laws until now.

    How I wish I could be there. I still miss them both so much. :cry3:

          Fish pie sounds good, any left? It doesn't taste quite the same when it's 'virtual' though. :heehee: :grphg:

            As always Nick - lovely words from you.
            Sheal, we are all feeling your pining here on GC. Skype is really great. We keep in touch with Nepalese friends in Nepal AND Vancouver. Its free which is incredible in this day and age and it does bring them closer to you. Do hope you can organise a link somehow.
            My thoughts are with you today too.xx Most precious thing is their happiness , we all know that about our kids in a far away place.xx
            Enjoy your wadge of currant bun :SUNsmile: today
