Hi Pete,
Thanks for the welcome.
We do always enjoy, but it is now time for me to find out more about the area and what makes it tick. I have 2 sons of which my eldest (10) has downs syndrome, hence my interest in the starfish centre. 18 Months ago I saw a Turkish mother with what I think was her daughter, also downs syndrome, I so much wanted to communicate with her. We both both stood with her daughter in between us, her not knowing why I had taken such an interest in the 2 of them. Not having the capability of talking to them in their language, it seemed an age before I had the idea of showing the mother a photo of Carlton. In a split second, her look of confusion turned to one of a shared loving interest for our special children. This meeting has haunted me ever since and I know there was a purpose, it is the meaning of the purpose I seek.
Listen to me going on, My biggest worry is that I will start smoking again when I get there.
Fletch.
