I am so thrilled. My nephew in Kent has 2 sons, both have been roller skating champions. Round about 1990 they went to Germany for the world championships. They both met Australian girls, later to become their wives so they now live in Aus.
Gawaine now teaches skating but Galvin is in to web making and trying to break into the film industry
This past week Galvin has been in LA for the film festival, he made a short film. He wrote,produced.acted and directed. Yesterday his film won ...short film..foreign ..at the festival. Today he is in Beverley Hills where his film is entered for another festival. Needless to say my fingers are crossed for him.
Have just been speaking to his Mum and they are over the moon. I bet my 83year old sister is doing a little dance. ;D I just wanted to tell somebody ;D

You've told me now so lets clear it off the boards..... ;D
What was the film about L??
Adam Waiting for a tape of the film but apparently it is a Psychological thriller that introduces 3 characters and their bleak pasts and future. It is as stated a short film (10mins).
Sorry Adam don't know how to delete posts but you are welcome to do it if you like ;D
Lorna, it's GREAT news. Can just imagine how over the moon you all are. Good luck to him and his film in BH. Fingers crossed and keep us informed :D
Thats brilliant news Lorna, your family must be so proud :)

Wow!! Lorna that is brilliant. Who knows where it could lead too. Look out the Oscars! busy_lizzie
Thanks folk. My niece said Galvin is out there to sell himself....his talents not his body.!!!
His 2year old son keeps walking round the house saying Daddy, Nanny over and over again. My nephew and niece have just returned from a 3 week visit so poor Carter keeps wondering where they have all gone!!
BRILLIANT news Lorna, let us know how he gets on and congratulations to him.
oh that's exciting Lorna, congrats to your nephew :D
Very happy for you and your family Lorna, been waiting to reply to one of your posts for ages, over the moon for you Lorna, you must be so proud of them.
If you have to go to Beverly Hills...I am free to come with you
And I am more than willing to carry yours and richards' bags. Brillant & Happy news, all the best for you and your family.
You really are such a nice crowd on A4A. Thank you for all your kind wishes. I haven't heard anymore today so doesn't look like he was a winner in Beverley Hills. I think the film is also entered in two more festivals, not sure where. Thanks again Lorna.
PS will bear you both in mind for carrying my bags ;D
