yay for you for speaking up when you were feeling anxious -well done - give yourself a pat on the back - that was a hard thing to do and you did it! I would insert a load of clapping smileys here if we had them!

The phone thing - try to think if my friend was feeling like this would i tell her to ring her T? thats how i got to ring my old one - its hard - i can write what i want to say much easier than say it - if not then next time you see your T say hmmm this phone number ? when should i use it? maybe he would give you some guidelines - you never know till you ask

take care P7

p.s., first time i rang my T I coldnt say anything he was talking to dead air - then eek! the first thing i said was "oh for gods sake just say something!" then i had to say "not you say somthing me! 'double eek ! LOL now though!
