Duty Calls

A dutiful start to the day - picked up by the sis and birrled along to Jean Hardie’s funeral at Seafield. I didn’t really know her, or her kids, but her husband Tom was a good friend of my Dad’s and he taught technical at my school when I was there. They’d attended my mum’s funeral just over two years ago, and it’s the done thing, isn’t it. Having said that it’s just that, I couldn’t help but being a bit affected by it; seeing him standing there, flanked by his son and daughter as the coffin was wheeled in. Tough for anyone.
Back to do a bit of gardening and plant out that laburnum, and a climbing rose the daughter had bought me.
So, football eh. What can you say? World-ranked 117 Kazakhstan. We can always joke about it. Ahem.
