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."

I still have my Oldham accent
Still got my scouse accent despite living daan sarf for 27 years 
. I was trying to get Thora to say "grass" instead of "grarse" yesterday

I have a Derby accent despite being daan sarf for 43 years!
Teaching reading and spelling to 7 year olds was amusing when I did it, particularly in spelling tests. I would just tell them to sound out what I say, eg: "fast", what would they spell? ... "farst"!!
One lesson I did struggle with was teaching reading and spelling "put" and "but". Apparently, they sound different daan sarf. Thankfully, the children could hear the difference but I couldn't!
Evening Julie 
When I was in Standard 2, aged 8, we had a student teacher for a good while when our regular one was on long time sick. Student had a massive lisp.
We were learning about Dick Turpin and I found it fascinating, making sure I got plenty of references in about 'Black Beth' when writing up to prove I'd been paying attention.
When Mr Student gave me my work book back I was puzzled why he thought something was funny...
I realised why a long time after xxx
Oh dear!! xxx
It was, but I'd never heard the story so just took Black Beth as gospel.
I was mortified when he laughed as I was a very good girl then. Things changed as I got older
