Family

Amongst the very good and not so good things that happened today was the discovery of a collection of letters written between Mum and Dad in 1948 when Dad was on National Service in Ireland while Mum was at home in London.  Dad was 19, Mum 17.  I didn't read them, but I have kept them.  At least for now. The photo, from the same year, was amongst the pics I found two days ago when I posted the photo of my bro and me.  Tears and smiles.  

Good things included going with bro this evening to my niece's Junior School end of year performance for year 6 - It was lovely to watch her and she clearly liked the fact that I was there :)  She starts "big school" in September.  Bad stuff will not be described here.
