Oh Chloe.

If i could have just one wish, it would be to go back 50 years..When my Parents were still here with me and were in Good Health and Happy. My Sons would be small and getting excited about Christmas. On Christmas Eve I used to wind them up and say, SHUSH,,LISTEN I CAN HEAR SANTA'S JINGLE BELLS.

My Husband used to work on the Lock Gates ,doing TIDAL SHIFTS. The one Christmas he came home from work at

2 30 am on Christmas Morning and i was sat on the top of the stairs crying my eyes out,because I was so tired.

He Said Oh what's wrong. I said.

Im shattered, they won't go to sleep.

He said its your own fault for winding them up. So my Husband went into their bedroom and said (( RIGHT YOU THREE, GET TO SLEEP, BECAUSE SANTA ONLY LEAVES YOUR PRESENTS WHEN YOU ARE ASLEEP. HE DON'T LEAVE THEM WHEN YOU'RE AWAKE..

HE'S WAITING FOR YOU TO GO TO SLEEP. ) That did the trick..

Within about 5 minutes they were all fastow. But my Husband was right ,it was my own fault for winding them up.

But they were the good old days.

So if i could have one wish.

IT WOULD BE TO GO BACK IN TIME FOR 50 YEARS.

COME ON CHLOE MAKE IT HAPPEN.

Hi Gjkas

You've just brought back lovely memories for me too, how we remember these things amazes me and it only takes a little nudge to bring them flooding back. I hope you experienced some warmth writing this post Gjkas and thank you so much x

its a tough one for me but if I could have one wish it would have been to have more ever lasting memories of my son instead of just one apart from the day he was born.

I have just thought about that film "The Rocky Horror (Picture) Show" There is a scene where RiffRaff's sister said she has asked for nothing and Dr FrankenFurter says she will receive it in abundance. I don't know what the intent of that line is, but it has an important message to me at least.

I have never wanted much or even asked for much and that is what "I" have received in abundance.

Comparatively and absolutely, I have had a good life. I have not had everything and I have gone without a few things. But one thing I have learnt in life is that I am lucky in too many ways.

So I would wish that everyone was at least as lucky as me.

How many folks here have a wish list. I've never had one but has anyone ever had one and found it any good?

Hi Greyone

No I haven't either but not a bad idea hmm....
