A huge thank you to everyone who commented ,texted and emailed about The Listening Project.
I found many of your words deeply moving and I appreciate every single one of them .
It was very hard listening to TLP ( even harder looking at that dreadful photo- the 2 mugs were preferable ) . but I’m glad I did it .
When I wobbled ,I thought of Rosie ,and composed myself by reaching out to hold her imaginary hand .
But how do I feel hearing it ?
Sad
Happy
Embarrassed
Stupid
Interrupting
In love with my family
Proud of all my family
and
A loathing of my voice ( although I’m yet to find anyone who likes the sound of their own voice when they hear it on tape )
Welcome to Rosie’s web site, dedicated to Rosie Grace Dwyer who died on the 21st of December 2008
I think you came over very natural .Do NOT worry about you voice as it is very warm
I only saw the mugs-China ones that is. I thought that you and your friend had very similar voices actually. I could have listened to more!
I was amazed to hear you on R4 on Sunday! It was lovely to hear your voice – even though you loathe it. You sound exactly like you did when you were 10!! I’ve been following your brilliant blog over the years, and always find it uplifting/inspiring/hilarious & tragic in equal measure. It’s great to hear you hanging on in there, and being so honest about how you’re feeling. Keep on blogging! xx
