I am going to St Donat's Castle, home to Atlantic College, opposite the Beach at Llantwit Major.
As a child I went with my family and other friends and would wonder about the sea frontage of the Building. I had a romantic notion of a princess's castle, but knew none of its history.
I reckon I need some time to play as life seems to have been very stressful, recently with having a bad back and other ongoing difficulties. Even going to the Sound of Music last Sunday 2nd August was quite stressful, because parking was full where we usually go in Mermaid Quay.
Mum gets so stressed about life and about me, but I think this is to do with seeing the world differently, and experiencing the world in different ways.
But I find that her getting stressed affects me and even sometimes upsets me, so I don't fuction well at these times. She seems to have higher expectations of things I find it difficult to fullfill, and gets upset when I don't achieve them and is always on about when I get myself together.
I sometimes wish I could say the same to her, but I am scared of upsetting her.
