Just saying Hi after being missing for a while
Hi to all those who know of me and to a couple of you who know me personally.
As you may have noticed I haven't posted since the middle of June and before that hardly at all since back in May sometime. Of course before that I was rather prolific in my postings and enthusiasm and those of you are are more aware of me know what a massive fan of Alan I am.
A couple of you know about the massive relationship trauma I experienced back in May. Without going into too much detail, my marriage of nearly 20 yrs was almost over several times because of it. However I am pleased to report that so far we are hanging in there and trying to make things work. It has been a devastating time for me, as I am struggling with big trust issues and that is why I haven't been around on the forum for a while.
Suzy I am sorry I didn't reply to your 'About a dog' question, I have only seen it today. Yes, I did post a warning a while ago that it was coming up. Ironically, I have missed the first 2 episodes myself because it clashed with our couple's relationship counselling sessions I am hoping to catch up on the last on on the internet though.
I haven't even been watching Alan alot recently even when I knew he was on the TV (Terrible isn't it?)
But tonight I am going to sit down and watch QI 10pm BBC2.
I promise to be around a little more now.
Helen is back!!

Re: Just saying Hi after being missing for a while
Hi All,
Just went to listen on t'internet to 'About a Dog' and disappointment the 'listen again' is not available. Can anyone else confirm or deny whether I am right on this or not.
I was really looking forward to hearing it.
Thanks
Helen

Re: Re: Just saying Hi after being missing for a while
First of all, Helen, let me say I am sorry for your recent pain. While I certainly cannot know how you feel, I dealt with the breakdown of a marriage some time ago. It's enervating to say the least. "Life-changing" at the best.
Re About A Dog and the Listen Again function on BBC4: it appears they are having problems with the radio player itself and nearly all of the programs are not available. I hope it gets fixed by next Tuesday!
Take it easy on yourself!

Hi Suzy,
Thanks for your kind words. My close friends have also said the nicest and supporting things to me. It makes such a difference.
I few weeks ago I wasn't, but at the moment I dare to be hopeful about the future.
Thanks for the message about the 'Listen Again', I'll keep checking.
Take Care

Re: Just saying Hi after being missing for a while
Thanks Nickie,
I will do, that's good advice.
BTW, the irony of choosing the other night to sit down and treat myself to a session of Alan on QI after a long gap of not watching. I only went and picked the night he buggered off to watch Arsenal didn't I.
Oh Well That's Life!!
What I need right now to cheer me up is a another Green Room session with Alan.
I will have to wait till next year now though.
Take Care

Re: Just saying Hi after being missing for a while
Hi Amy,
Thank you for your kind words.
It's a rollercoaster. Been up and then down today, but will be ok in the long run I'm sure .
You ask am I still as Alan obsessed as ever?
Yes. It would take nothing short of a nuclear war to change that!!
I am not offending those I love at home to say that?
