One for the family history book
This is the Akeroyd family grave in Castleford. SHH was named after his Uncle Robert whose war grave this is. This Robert died in a training accident in the war somewhere over Norfolk as far as we know. He died when his only daughter was a few months old. SHH's twin brother was named after their father, John, who died 2 months before the twins were born. The women of the Akeroyd clan were much more long lived.
We went to collect a tea set I have acquired for Dementia Tea parties via Ebay from Barnsley so it seemed a good time to go to Castleford too. Just check up that the grave hasn't disappeared into the earth totally.
I am pleased to report that I have made my pledge to Blip future.
I am sad to see ruined furniture sitting outside on the street for my friends in the North...
