Inspiration for Camberwick Green under threat:
I generally go to bed before 9pm and wake before 5am.
Given this sleep-awake pattern, which is not entirely social, Hogmanay generally passes me by!
I wish it was otherwise, as all that matters to me is my family.
This Hogmanay, just before midnight, I woke up in bed and switched on the radio [my companion]. Just in time to hear a song by Roddy Woomble. Then it was midnight and New Year!
This short film is inspired by the song that I heard Roddy Woomble sing.
Thank you Eileen [my mother-in-law] for recognising that I was strong.
