Synopsis/Details:

Kristy turned thirty today.
Her family are all on holidays, but have not forgotten her; birthday cards, around her.
She sits on her bed and logs in to her digital diary on her laptop and enters her day.
Dear diary: Today is the 3rd and yep, it’s my 30th and still single, but... I met the most “perfect” guy last night, John… I’ll keep my fingers crossed. I really like him. He makes me laugh…
All Kristy wants is love and her own family.
Kristy was not always Kristy, she was one known as, Christopher.
