Description
Listener mail is warmly welcomed 🙋♀️
A very happy vendredi to you. A good week? Or no? A pleasant weekend in prospect? Fun and happy plans? Or not? Too much lone time in prospect, and an uneasy feeling of isolation and dependence on the television? Whatever your circumstances, I wish you well. Don’t keep anything to yourself that might be unhealthy. Write it down, share with a friend, or join an online support group. You are not alone and people care.
Night night for now. And don’t catch your jumper sleeve on any ‘wide-mouthed hate-dents..’
