I get this feeling but only when I'm really upset about something. When I was six my mum was planning on taking me to meet my gran for the first time. About a month before we were due to fly, my mum got word that my gran (her mum) had died. The trip was bought forward and on the morning of the funeral, I went from playing with my cousins to crying uncontrollably for hours. I cried the whole way through the service and slept the rest of the day. For years after my mum would tell me she dreamt about me with my gran, me as a baby with my gran watching over my cot. So now when I'm feeling low and I get that feeling of a shiver (without the shake), I like to think that it's my gran's there comforting me.


Weirdly, my little one once told me that as she passed my bedroom door, she saw an old lady standing over me watching me sleep!

I wish the bloody living would leave me alone when I'm, er, communing with nature. One imagines that a guardian angel might at least have the decency to turn its back, and certainly not bounce up and down and ask to sit on one's lap and enquire exactly what one might be doing.

    • Colin.    One for the old school.   Just saying.
    • Signed, and I will share it elsewhere, thank you for posting this. It's got nearly 70,000 signatures at present, and apparently runs till February.
    • There’s a couple of Gov petitions going on in relation to fireworks at the moment but this one is for banning them entirely except organised displays if anyone wants to sign. This is the only sensible way forward in my view. No one should be able to let them off in gardens or anywhere like that, it’s crazy. I am surprised some of you have said it hasn’t been as bad this year. I live near DKH Saino and it’s been absolutely terrible my way for days. This petition gained about 20,000 just in the last day or so so clearly the appetite is there! https://petition.parliament.uk/petitions/732559
    • I'd have thought they could use some of  their income from hiring out a large part of Brockwell Park in the summer (therefore, as I understand it, preventing local residents from using much of it) to put on a firework display there  in the autumn which might somewhat make up to those residents for the previous loss of use of the park. And also generate goodwill.
