Emily is home tomorrow - yeay. With new boyfriend Sean. It's weird her being away for so long, and the longer she stays the more likely it is to become permanent. Still whatever makes her happy. I'll always be proud of her and be there for her. I wonder what this Sean is going to be like then. No pressure on him I guess. Shall I do the fierce, fatuous or hilariously funny father? I don't know yet, I'll be meeting him tomorrow. Better be sensible I suppose.
Lizzy is waiting for her 'A' level results in a week or so. I'm so proud of her too. Let me make it clear, I'm proud of all of my children in equal measure, and will be proud of Lizzie whatever her results. She wants to go into a very demanding profession, social work. She has a distant aunt who is high up in the Aussy system. It would be good if she did a placement out there. I'd go with her of course.
What about Rachel, you can't say fairer than top marks in her year at Uni? She's working too long hours as a waitress. Jonny, I've spoken of recently anyway, and is, as far as I know, safe and well and on the way to Santiago.
I have a new charge though. Hammid is a nineteen year old from Afghanistan. He is seeking refugee status but the crazy system is blocking him. His father was shot by the Taliban and his brother too. He was smuggled here in a van, but because he had to stop in France when he developed appendicitis, he can't seek asylum here, only in the first port of call. He's scared witless, but the authorities wont listen. meanwhile, I'm determined to keep him safe.
I'll be 54 at the end of this week. 54 years OLD
