I...I do kind of know what you mean about McGough... I have liked his work but his voice is now associated with adverts more than anything else (can't remember what - I am allergic to adverts..). As I say, I don't listen to the show that much... just dip in now and again.<br /><br />And you must watch the other shows in the "Growing Children" series - the other two shows are just as interesting/enthralling.<br /><br />xRachel Foxhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11803852725693518924noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6246801426821066145.post-1938184664370622862012-08-29T23:04:35.146+01:002012-08-29T23:04:35.146+01:00There is an enormous amount to be said for quiet t...There is an enormous amount to be said for quiet time. Having just fully comprehended that women don't get a pension these days until 67 I am hoping for some in 2030. Please. I can feel a Bukowski ramble coming on...<br /><br />Try, try, try as I might I just can't get past my (irrational) aversion to Roger McGough's voice, so thanks for the Poetic Justice link.<br /><br />I watched the first 'Growing Children' episode, and am still in absolute awe of the mother with the teenage autistic son. Fortitude, love, wisdom and common sense in one woman. She's my new hero.Titushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16380213493011623153noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6246801426821066145.post-25579218035472085632012-08-29T17:15:02.051+01:002012-08-29T17:15:02.051+01:00Some people would say I'm always on a break I ...Some people would say I'm always on a break I think!<br />xRachel Foxhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11803852725693518924noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6246801426821066145.post-68886871682735954032012-08-29T17:01:44.145+01:002012-08-29T17:01:44.145+01:00You deserve a break...take one, guilt free and enj...You deserve a break...take one, guilt free and enjoy it!hopehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03306622656461205674noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6246801426821066145.post-49884793369228319612012-08-29T15:53:45.374+01:002012-08-29T15:53:45.374+01:00I am doing the tidying... bit by bit.

It is so irritating, when I really want to get all tidied up after their visit, but much as I enjoy their company I do need a rest afterwards.
