Circa 1965

Clearly there is a hoarding gene. My dad has quite a collection of unworn items that he says will be worn at some point.

These pyjamas were acquired when he was married in 1967 in case he ever needed to stay in hospital.

He wasn't and has never been a large man though so it would be interesting to see how the self supporting waist holds up.

He brought me tea in bed at 6.30 and tea, toast and marmalade at my desk at 9.30

I had tomato soup with him at lunchtime, delayed slightly by an over running meeting and then had to rush home for another.

Managed to squeeze in an afternoon break in to walk Roo in some late sunshine before the final meeting of the day which was mostly a couple of hours of chatting.
