You Are My Sunshine
By Anne-Marie Pellow
What happens when you bump into the love of your life, who you haven't seen for thirty years?
A Tinder blunder at New Year brings Sid and Julia back into each other’s orbit.
Sid wants to hide away in her late mum’s house eating Christmas chocolates, and leave their shared history buried in the past.
Julia has other ideas and wants to make amends for what happened thirty years ago. But it’s a small community, and guess what?
You got it! You can’t hide. It was inevitable they’d bump into each other. Cue the replay button.
From enemies to band mates, and icebergs to palm trees, life’s a rocky road to negotiate.
Three decades on, life is still a learning curve with care homes and whippets to contend with. But can the benefit of life experience help them navigate a new relationship?
