Have been to the living with seconderies in Edinburgh today.
Got to meet some lovely people and information that will be useful.
Of course me being me - brain and tounge are not in gear - put both feet ++++ in it.
Sorry so sorry but I managed to tell one of the ladies she looked well. Should have said she looked good.
Well I thought this lady looked fab.
Bright eyed, smiling and looking altogether.
I never quite manage that look.
Now you know why I’m a gloworm - no- its not because I’m bright - more red and shinny faced.
Hear today on the radio that a glow worm is actually a beetle that is sending out a signal that they are ready to mate when they glow in the dark…now have I put my foot in it too Glo! Did the lady smile back or glower at you? She may be did not even notice. I know it would probably have gone over my head. I have missed the meeting 2 years on the trot as have been recovering from an op each time. Maybe I will meet up with you at the next one. Love Val
I thought everyone looked amazingly well and I usually hate using this word but so positive. I thought the first session on Management of Secondaries was really good and it was great to meet everyone.
Hi all…I too was there and it was really nice meeting everyone. However, I came away from it feeling very down in the dumps. I started crying when I got in the car and when I got home, just bawled my head off. I am sure that this is not the effect that BCC want, because it’s meant to be an information day. I don’t know why I reacted like this, but occasionally it hits me as to what I’ve got. I’m normally quite good at pushing it to the back of my mind, but maybe talking about it all day, brought it to the surface.
So, I have mixed feelings about it and perhaps that kind of a day is not for me. I guess we’re all different.

Sorry that you felt like this Isobel. Contact me anytime if you need a chat or to offload. I am a good listener! But I do not think it is a bad thing that you had a cry. I think you have needed to do that for a long time. As you said it just brought it all home. Hugs, Val
Isobel. sorry you had a bit of a downer. Sometimes it’s good to let all the pent up feelings out and you might feel better for it. Hope so. I felt less isolated having met you all.
