Who am I this time? Happily married, one grown child, Wrote a book once, used to act. I work full time but am starting to see the golden ticket known as retirement peeking its head around the corner. Lover of all things British since practically birth.
I have pseudo grandchildren, belonging to much younger friends, but they call me Nana, and my 9 year old granddaughter texts me, and the 3 year old boy hugs me, and it fills my heart so much.

I was thinking about the whole 'sending American soldiers into American cities' thing, and thought all the protesters should jus sit or lie down, and not say a word. They can accuse protetester of being terrorists if they aren't actually doing anything.

Charles Dickens, on the meaning of 'woke'. It's 'when men and women seem by one consent to open their shut-up hearts freely, and to think of people below them as if they really were fellow-passengers to the grave, and not another race of creatures bound on other journeys.'
