You’ve had some wonderful times Sheila. Don’t be sad as you have all those memories. Xxx 😘

[garshe in reply to sassy59]

I know. Most probably all the cheap cigarettes didn't help. 😱thank goodness my daughter's never smoked. I gave it up 9yrs ago when diagnosed so glad I did. There are lots worse off than me so I am grateful for what I have. Xx😊😊

What an incredible and adventurous life, living in so many different places with all those different experiences.

[garshe in reply to HungryHufflepuff]

Yes ,I could write a book on our experiences. Caught up in the coo in Sri Lanka. Got hi jacked in Yemen. Living in the Punjhab when they took over the Golden Temple in Amristra. We were only 20mins away..We survived it all and live to tell the tale. Lol Sheila

[garshe in reply to Lyubov]

I have kept many sitting on the edge of their seat and also rolling in laughter at our local Pub.you can't make them up honestly and some are hilarious. To live to tell the tale is a miracle lol. xx Sheila

My Granddaughter is absolutely beautiful. We have kept her out of the sun with total sunblock so she has a porcelain complection and Angelina Jolie lips. She's my World. Every breath I take is for her. 😍😘

Great photo, attractive Mum and daughter. Such a life living abroad, you must have enjoyed it. I spent 10 years out of the UK and loved it, couldnt do the travel now though x

[garshe in reply to Izb1]

Same here. Loved the life of an ex pat and all the travelling. I stick closer to home these days. Plenty of happy memories.x Sheila

[watergazer]

oh glam- what WONDERFUL life you've had x

[garshe in reply to watergazer]

Yes great memories and met some wonderful friends. Much quieter life these days. Oh to be young again lol Sheila

[watergazer in reply to garshe]

👍

[Lemon7]

You both look so glamorous. What an exciting life you have experienced and the many memories of the places you've visited must be wonderful.

[garshe in reply to Lemon7]

Yes just memories now. Would love to do it all over again. We were fortunate as it was 1975 when we first went to Dubai. So much nicer in those days. It's too commercial now and not the Old Dubai I loved. India again is one of my favourites. We always lived in outlandish places not the tourist areas so much fun living with the locals. Oh well I can always look at the photos x Sheila

[Lemon7 in reply to garshe]

All those memories and the experience of living in so many different places must be wonderful. You've had a life most people can only dream of experiencing. Hope it continues to be fantastic with your family around you too. The precious things in life are the best.

[garshe in reply to Lemon7]

Yes being close to my family is what makes me happy now. I do wish I could do the tour one more time and visit them all again but this won't happen as i only do short haul these days.Sheilax

[Lemon7 in reply to garshe]

Best wishes to you. Enjoy your short hauls and your family around you and happy memories. 🙂
