Grandma2213 Mon 10-Aug-15 23:38:41

I'm afraid I cannot see the Western Horizon at sunset from my house or I would. However I did have a brilliant view of the International Space Station passing over at 10:40pm. Love it!

Do you think 4 is too old to have a dummy?

Wheniwasyourage Tue 11-Aug-15 18:47:02

Yes, but then I hate dummies anyway. I particularly feel sorry for children who want to try talking, but have to get it out through a mouthful of plastic sad

Did you or do you still have a favourite uncle or auntie?

soontobe Wed 12-Aug-15 08:18:57

No. They are all different really, but nice.
I have several aunties left, but no uncles. It has been quite marked in our family, that the uncles have died several years before the aunties.

Do you or did you have a favourite uncle or auntie?

Leticia Wed 12-Aug-15 08:21:07

No- all nice in different ways.

soontobe Wed 12-Aug-15 08:28:36
