black shoe day

I have one pair of black shoes.  For as long as I can remember black has not been my colour of choice in the footwear department. But sometimes I wear black shoes - and more often than not with a tie of the same colour.  Today is such a day.  

At the Milton Keynes Crematorium and then in a local pub, we say goodbye to our friend Peter the Potter.  

Although cut short, Peter had a good life; a long and happy marriage, children and grandchildren and days spent working clay into shapes that people wanted to buy.  

So it’s only fitting that he had a good death; at peace, without pain or discomfort, surrounded by his family.  It’s the best any of us can hope for.


RIP Peter.  We’ll miss you.
