The spirit of Christmas

Attended a 40 year reunion event this weekend with the girls I started my nurse training with in 1978. We were all 18 years old and very timid but a lot has changed since then. Had a great time with them and wrote this poem to celebrate the event. We came to London allContinue reading “40 years ago”
