Love at First Sight

October 19, 2016

It’s been a while since I’ve written here, but as his been the way in the past I feel the need. I’m going to go back to February when I got a text from my youngest, Jake, it was along the lines of I have to tell you something, you’re either going to be angry … More Love at First Sight

365 Happy Days – A smile a day – Part 44

September 5, 2015

I’m sitting here contemplating why I started to write this nearly a year ago – I’d say that it’s almost become a way of keeping memories of Luke fresh, but also a way that I may be able to help others who’re facing adversity of any kind really. It never ceases to amaze me just … More 365 Happy Days – A smile a day – Part 44

A letter to Luke on the day he died. I have no idea how we got to this day yet again – 14th July 2015!  That means it’s been 6 years since we lost you, 6 years since that horror day when I realised I hadn’t flown to Thailand to see you saved, I’d flown … More 365 Happy Days – A smile a day – Part 42

June 20, 2015

It’s 11;30 pm on a Saturday evening and I feel a burning need to write here, it’s been on my mind for a while but I’ve been too busy gallivanting, too busy living life, too busy being happy. I want to recount something that happened on social media a few weeks ago, I use the … More 365 Happy Days – a smile a day – Part 40

Here we are in May already – it’s amazing how quickly time flies when you’re enjoying yourself!  My ‘other; blog 365 Sporting Days has kept me busy to say the least!  The writing for sure, but of course going to all the sporting events most of all.

October 17, 2014

I’ve written a lot about Luke and will most probably write a lot more and I think with my recent piece, people probably have the measure of his little brother Jake.  But, I think I’ve only given a hint of Alexandra; time to write a little about her; being mindful of the fact her lovely … More 365 Happy Days – A smile a day – Part 13

October 15, 2014

Writing what I have so far has been very cathartic it’s given me a good chance to think about the last 5 or so years and has put Luke to the front of my mind.  He’s never too far away and that will always be the case, while I can honestly say I’m happy, probably … More 365 Happy Days – A smile a day – Part 12

October 12, 2014

Having settled into my little rented house and enjoyed some solitude I was to be joined by both Jake and Shirley.  This little dog of ours is a rescue dog; she was left tied to a tree when she was about 3 years old; for some reason as a family we decided we wanted a … More 365 Happy Days – A smile a day – Part 11
