Hello Charliemum, welcome to the forum. You live in a lovely area. I have visited several times. As a friend moved to Gateshead & then brought a caravan in Allendale when they returned to Norfolk. Plus, when I worked in a childrens home, we brought the kids up for a holiday in Kielder.

It's like it is on the films green n wet even as I write this the rain falls on my window .
So cool your young one has managed college, my son really struggles with school. He is super smart, like Sheldon smart, but he has no social skills and struggles with the other students. You must be extremely proud .

That's great and at least your lad has come far enough past his social anxiety to go and do college, double proud.
I am hoping as my boys hormones lvl out he will feel he is able to do further education too, really as long as he is happy doing whatever he does so am I.

Hopefully little one arrived safe n sound WolfieKate ?
