Noble Thoughts of a Sealander
Starshine:
no worries Paulie, I change it to black just for you
Scousebill:
I lost my dad recently and it looks like I will lose my father-in-law soon. It never hit me very hard but seemed to affect my wife more. I can understand how you are feeling and I think I will understand more when my wifes father passes away. It will really hurt to see my wife so sad. We never forget and never really fully recover from a close loss but with time we do get over other peoples poor reactions to your loss. We seem to be in a faceless society now where people are more easy sending condolences via Facebook and Twitter rather than actually speaking to you face to face. If you are not able to offer strength personally when it is needed then don"t do it at all..
I am sorry to hear about what has happened recently and I really only logged onto this thread as I thought it was going to be about the upcoming charity football match with the Allstars v Sealand

I am sorry to hear about your loss :"( my thoughts are with you and your wife. I shall light a candle for your father in law :-(
Sorry for disappointing you with not going bout upcoming football matches ;-) but I have to admit I am not this much of a football fan. And if so more with german teams ;-)
With Sealand what I would really like if not only some football clubs accept them, but if APAT would as well except Sealand as a team (nation), because this would be really great fun, and I would honestly like it if there was Sealand at a apat team nations cup. Not even knowing if i would be in the team, but still would like it. BUT this will never happen and makes me feel a bit like Don Quichotte fighting windmills ;-)
MintTrav:
You have had a lot of heartache lately, but I wouldn"t be too hard on people who offer you condolences that you feel are not adequate. Most people do not really know what to say for the best in these situations, so they just do what they can. A well-known APAT member lost his father recently and I posted a message that I thought was totally inadequate compared with what I wanted to express, but I couldn"t think of something better. I would hope, though, that he didn"t think it was just shot off without any meaning, and I"m sure he didn"t. I would imagine that your friends want to communicate something to you but, like most people, are not skilled in this area.
PHIL_TC:
Thoughts are with you Gina, huge hugs xx
