Apologies..........

Until today I had no real valid reason for not posting - just couldn't seem to shake the shadow that the cast laid over Xmas and everything else. I have so much to tell............but now tragically I do have a valid reason for a further delay.

My uncle (who I mentioned previously) died very suddenly today (well yesterday actually) and unlike my FIL who we had very little to do with, we were very close to my uncle. I must admit I feel like I've lost my anchor as he was my only remaining close relative apart from DS. There is no-one left of that generation and he was only 74!

Anyway please bear with me and THANK YOU all for being there.

Thank you all for your kind thoughts and prayers at this tough time - they REALLY ARE appreciated- we just have to get through Thursday now (the funeral) which I know is going to be the worst - fingers crossed and God willing!
