Friday 19th December

Peter is such a good drunk You had to feel sorry for poor Simon, with his dad embarrassing him at the play Although I felt sorry for Peter at the end, he wants to do the best for his son but he needs help for his alcoholism first, and Ken shouting at him isnt going to help.

Those scenes at the school just made me cringe. At my daughter's school, one of the dads turned up at the nativity play worse for wear and I was so embarrassed for his wife. She tried to stop him coming in, then she tried to get him to quiet down, but she failed miserably. Their little boy was just bewildered. How selfish some parents are.
