That's the ballet company, innit? ;-)
As Dennis the Menace once said, "Why don't they just hire taller girls?" :-)
They know they can survive
That's the one....
Always adds a nice little touch of culture to mention the Bolshoi.

You're talking about the Borzoi, those big dog thingies!

Ah, the "joys" of parenting.
Ah, the "joys" of parenting. Sorry, Cathy, all Mums and Dads know this type of stuff all to well. It just comes with the territory, but some days are better than others, and then there are the little things that make up for everything. Cathy is and has been just so overwhelmed recently, she needs a real "time out" holidays for like about 6 weeks to get back on track. J-Lynn
Didn't really expect a chapter tonight
So anything is a huge bonus!
Shame on Cathy for her nasty thoughts toward Livvie after this, "I woke at one point feeling a small hand clasp me round the waist and a sleepy voice sighed, “Mummy.†I don't care how tired she is, that child needs her and is showing it. But, everyone needs a chance to rest so I do hope Cathy can get a day off or a night off. At least a chance to do things for herself or maybe just sleep. Too much worry and lack of sleep and she'll end up sick or worse.
Thanks Angharad! Hope you enjoy your holiday.
Mmmm An unexpected treat
... Having read Angharads blog i'd resigned myself to a EAFOB free weekend Nice then to wake up and find a new episode waiting for me to enjoy.. Thanks Angharad.

Touching chapter
This was a very touching chapter, Angharad! Thanks for taking the time while on your trip to keep this tale going!
Trish will eventually learn that, despite their occasional squabbles, Cathy and Simon love each other very deeply. The love and care they show her will help her overcome her fear of rejection.
It was a nice touch to put in the tragic passing of Michael Jackson; little touches like that add to the realism of the story by tying it in with real world events.

What a thing to wake up to...
I got a text message from my 21 yr old letting me know that "the gloved one" was dead. I really enjoyed the "Captain Eo" Ride that used to be in Epcot (World of Imagination).
Parents do occasionally "argue"... But, Cathy and Simon do seem to argue - often. Typically because they don't take time to "understand" where the other's coming from. They really DO need to learn to talk. They regularly show signs that they care for each other - though Cathy seems to have difficulty remembering this when her "emotions get charged"... Perhaps they should "consider" a moratorium on "cutting" and other snyde type of remarks for a while - to see if they can learn to actually TALK.
Okay, I know Simon's a guy. And, talking's not always a guy thing... But, some do manage. (I've seen it!)
Hope you have pleasant dreams!
Thanks,
Annette

There is a case where parenting went wrong. We will never know what his life was like, and do not assume he is guilty of everything that is claimed. There were rumors he was a castrato, which would be truly horrible if true.
Again, we will never know. He may have been guilty of something, but I saw a lot of people, parents especially, setting things up to tap into what was once a pretty decent fortune. RIP guy.
Ang, you start when the rest are asleep.
Boner, we used to call it a piss-on. the other can happen just walking down the street, or so I'm told.
Hope Simon took your advise, and wears shorts to bed.
