The new week has arrived, and I am feeling a little optimistic. Just a little, mind you, as it’s still early days. This website is far from finished, but I seem to be grasping the nettle and making it work. All I need (I think) is a new header image and a way to stop my posts from coming out as excerpts. When we started all those years ago, it wasn’t easy to learn the basics. But compared to the last few days, it was actually a walk in the park!

Today, we are introducing the other sister in Folly’s End, Angie Watson. I wonder if you will like her?

Hi, I am Angela Watson, the black sheep of our family. Younger sister to Charlie Fletcher.

After what I did all those years ago, I never thought I would ever see my big sister again.

Stealing the love of her life was unforgivable.

It was a nasty thing to do to anyone, but I couldn’t help it. I was lonely and needed someone to love me, and Tom just happened to be there. I am not as strong as my sister, and I remember being very jealous of the two of them.

I don’t accept all of the blame either, as there were two of us in that sad situation. If I’m honest, he didn’t take much stealing.

Through all the years we have been apart, I have really missed my sister and all the fun we used to have.

When Tom didn’t come home from work that day, I didn’t know what to do. Eventually, the food and money ran out, and the kids were hungry. I had to ask my sister for help. If she didn’t come to help me, what would I do?

I didn’t deserve her sympathy, but I prayed she would forgive me enough to come to my rescue for the children’s sake.

Well, she did turn up, but all was not well between us.

Could we bury the hatchet?

Could I swallow my pride and accept her help?

New problems (sigh) gaps between the lines, and I seem to have run out of room! Back to the drawing board!
