@BBCNews Some of us have heart breaking as we've not been able to see our family for over a year. I have a 14 months old grand daughter in Northern Ireland and a 91 year old father in England and I'm French living in Northern France. I'm not dure how much longer before I crack completely.
@charliemackesy Thank you Charlie. You've hit it on the head again. This expresses exactly how I feel as I head out, putting on a brave face to teach my classes, knowing it's a year since I saw my 13 month old granddaughter and longer since I saw my 91 year old dad. But, dawn is coming. Hope.
@charliemackesy If you have time to read this and reply, can you tell me where I can get some Prodigal daughter cards, please This painting helped me through a tough time.
@charliemackesy You are very popular over here, Charlie. I've been reading your book with my class in Lille one page a week this year and lots of students and colleagues have gone out to buy a copy in French and English. Thank you so much for the inspiration you are giving at this hard time.
Est-ce que an peut me dire si les bus vont arrêter aux arrêts dans le ZUP de Wattignies demain matin après leur retrait de ce soir, s'il vous plaît ? #Ilevia#Wattignies
