I agree abou...Belated Happy Birthday to your baby.<br /><br />I agree about the pocket novels, they're a great opportunity, especially when a lot of fiction outlets seem to be shrinking. I love DC Thomson - everyone I've ever dealt with there has been lovely. All I need is time to write 50k words.<br /><br />XXSuzanne Ross Joneshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08561888635304578484noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7328996877751363067.post-42363728219973657822011-02-26T09:10:43.830+00:002011-02-26T09:10:43.830+00:00I agree, Patsy.

(And you don't look old enough to have four over thirty.<br /><br />What a lovely thing to say, Suzy, thank you!<br /><br />I love Casualty, Jarmara. How fantastic they're filming at your son's hospital. <br /><br />Jacula, what I wouldn't give to be 27 again - oh no, maybe not - that was not a good year for me, but I'd settle for 30. Yes that would be nice.

'How do you think I feel? I was 27 when I had you!'<br /><br />I then went on to tell him that I'd probably have to disown him after his birthday, since I couldn't possibly admit to having such an ancient firstborn.<br /><br />So, Teresa, I'm with you on how fast life whizzes by once you become a parent.<br /><br />Jarmara - Your comment made me laugh. My Mum had to miss an episode of the new medical drama series "Emergency Ward 10" (which ran from 1957-1967) when she was giving birth to me. The experience didn't stop her from continuing to watch the series, however, and I watched it, too, when I was old enough.Jackie Saylehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13047994593375513101noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7328996877751363067.post-54073186333193248842011-02-25T21:20:58.085+00:002011-02-25T21:20:58.085+00:00Have great day remembering your son birth day. My ...Have great day remembering your son birth day. My son told me today that the hospital where he is working will be filming a episode of 'Casualty' I told him about the day he came into the world was the day I missed an episode of the programme, which up until then was unmissable for me. As his father rubbed my back I asked him what the time was as it had felt like forever. I was told it was 7.30. 'Oh,' said I 'I'm missing Casualty... 'Oh well' said he 'you're experiencing it instead.' I never did watch another episode of the programme again.Paula RChttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05550276147711384895noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7328996877751363067.post-92158566743854753612011-02-25T19:17:39.143+00:002011-02-25T19:17:39.143+00:00Hi Teresa,
