Kathryn,
sorry you’re feeling so anxious. don’t worry about something that hasn’t yet happened. My god if i could have £1 for each time someone’s told me that over the last two weeks I would be rich now! But it is a wise saying. I know it is easier said that done! I’m sure onces you have explained to Dames the situation he is NOT going to think you are gambling. It’s not what you do any more and I’m sure he knows it.
It’s great to hear you won that competition! A christmas miracle – love it!
Stay strong hun you’re doing ok,
