Are you having trouble sleeping?
Sleep problems may be caused by how you’re feeling emotionally, or as part of the side effects for cancer treatment. If you find it hard to have a good sleep, you’re not alone. The Online Community is here to support you 24/7.
“Getting a cancer diagnosis is extremely stressful, and that brings a whole load of emotions, and lack of sleep certainly does not help. I think many of us have periods of insomnia. I experienced a long period of not sleeping. I could go off to sleep quite quickly, but after an hour I would find myself wide awake again, and would spend the rest of the night getting frustrated because I couldn't sleep."

The showbiz stories are making me laugh.

I'm much the same as you Gill. My only direct contacts with 'stars' were Rod Latter, drummer in a few punk bands (he was at the same school as me and we were friends before he hit the big-time niche!); I've had a pub lunch with John Otway and Wild Willy Barrett, only because my work colleague played mouth harp on the single 'Baby's in the Club.' When the single was released, Otway could not remember my colleague's surname. He was listed as 'Mick Something.' My daughter was and still is very friendly with Jack Bennett aka 'Grumblebee.' I've also spoken to him twice when dropping her off for gigs.
I think Ukiboy and Soc have out-celebretied us

Afternoon Ray 
You're right, our claims to fame are pants compared to Soc and Uki. At a donkey derby in the mid 70s I got Andrew Burt's autograph - you'll probably be thinking who the hell's he? The original Jack Sugden out of Emmerdale Farm. No, I wasn't impressed either and didn't hang on to the scribbled on piece of paper!
The last time you mentioned Rod Latter I asked OH if he'd heard of him, as he was very much into punk. He had, but I doubt he'd have the same reaction with your latest revelations, whereas I'm going to Google them.
Enjoy your day, my fine friend xxx
