The Silent Witness

As many of you already know, my daughter Julia (who wrote as Overthetop1 on Abc) died suddenly in May whilst on a short unescorted outing from a Mental Health Unit. She was due to move into a care facility in the community very soon, and as yet the cause of her death is still unknown. She had been to a cafe near the hospital for a sandwich, and the cafe owner, seeing how unwell she was, followed her out. Unfortunately Julia never made it back to the ward. Later the cafe owner told her sister and I what happened before we got to the hospital. Coral Jane

I've not been around Abc much, just willing this season away, but so glad I caught this.

It's beautiful, and wise, and I loved it.

I think I'm of the same generation, as all these names were familiar to me.  I much enjoyed your potted history of women and their - I mean our - role in history.

I've read this one several times, and decided I really like how surreal it is...working class pigeons and blue buses...why not?
