CORONATION STREET
I grew up watching this show LOL, back in the days of Stan and Hilda Hogdon, Ena Sharples, Bette Lynch. I would not know the characters now haven't watched it in twenty years. It was funny back then. How is it now?

We are very fortunate & take it for granted
by Simon inwe've just been watching an absolutely heart wrenching documentary on itv about a little girl with a very rare disease (progeria) which makes her age prematurely at 10 times the normal rate.
she will be like an old woman by the time she is 10.. they have a meet-up where the little kids with the same condition can play and have fun together and seeing their poor little faces looking so happy is a wonder to behold.
i guess it's easy to forget that inside they are still really little kids.

What is a Moor
A Moor can strectch for miles and miles and can be described as rolling hills.
Watch Wuthering Heights that will give you some idea of what a moor is.

Hi undecided
My roomate aka my best friend is an artist and has worked in computer graphics for many years. She can restore that picture if you wish. Her user name is Eisenstein, if you are interested post on this thread and let her know then she can e-mail you with the photo details that you would have to send back. Just a thought i had.

I didn't get anywhere with that so, I moved to a different congregation. Not only was he an elder but, a bethelite also. Get this: He went over the baptismal questions with me in his room at bethel...oh, but he left the door open. LOL! Afterwards, he played Enya, and ran into the bathroom and did a quick change of clothes. He also led another sister on who happened to be in love with him. And played sisters against one another. To cut a long story short he was an A$$HOLE, who got away with breaking the borgs rules. To repair his tattered reputation, he got married to a pioneer sister from Japan. It was the beginning of my descent out of the org.

group i was thrilled to be with except one little girl 9 years younger named donna f. i liked playing with her and sometimes got invited over to their house and/or out to eat by her mom pat..donna was dfd when she was 16 and now 38 yrs later she is still dfd and we are still in touch..i always was jealous of skippy he did not have to go to meetings / assemblies or out in door to door with the group..i would have loved to spend all those hours with my dog and my best friend skippy.. when i do my booklet i will tell much more about skippy--this is just to wet your interest and want a copy of it...and until then (((((((((healing hugs))))))) queenie
