Hi there, I'm 46, new to the site, and loving it!
I'm in the process of clearing my dad's house after he passed away suddenly and unexpectedly two weeks before Christmas, and as it's the home I grew up in, I'm finding it a painful experience, to say the least.
However, one of the good things is that I've found so many of my old toys and books - Ladybird books priced at 2'6D - as well as dolls, which has given me the strength to "go on."
Why is it that the past always seems so much better than today? And I say that despite being happily married, and having so much to be thankful for...
I'm looking forward to exploring the site a bit more - I've mostly been enjoying the "Toys" section up to press - and I thank everyone for making me feel so welcome (and normal) already.
