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."

Sheeesh! Thanks, at least I know that now! 
Perhaps it was the universe saying not the right time for that particular waffle 
Cheers
Good Morning Ukiboy
You don’t want to hear me sing although I like “Whispering Grass”. Don Estelle was born in Crumpsall Manchester and is buried just up the road from me in Rochdale!
As you may be aware my “go to” song is Tubthumping by Chumbawamba. It’s the lyrics that are my mantra
”I get knocked down, but I get up again, You’re never gonna keep me down”.
Talking music - we have a picture in the kitchen with some lyrics

Hello Ukiboy
It was written to let us all know how the government had so much surveillance and control over the public - CCTV, GCHQ etc. In fact it was a bit of a protest song.
It was used in an episode of "Spitting Image" when the world was a little worried over the power Ayatollah Khomeini was building up in Iran.
It's very appropriate for Ryder as he's a sight hound and when he's not sleeping he's on the universal quest for food. If he could he would have a bed in the kitchen as well as the lounge and dining room.
Kind regards - Brian.

Good afternoon all
We've arrived at Alan's M&Ds in Liverpool after an uneventful journey.
Now for a boring few days

Afternoon Helen 
Have you taken your cross stitch to alleviate the boredom? At least you'll be able to hole up in the motorhome when you're not cooking and tidying for M and D in-law.
Remind Alan not to go near the electrics!
Enjoy
