January 1st 2020

It has been a while since we blipped but the many blip anniversaries that we have seen this week has been both heartwarming and fabulous! Well done all of you.

Our lives have taken some curveballs over the last few months. Mrs BR lost her father two weeks after my hospital stay. He was fit until a few days before and so it was a terrible shock for us all. We found his plane ticket and passport already packed in his bag ready for his Christmas visit to Guernsey.  We remain grateful he was with us until his 91st year and was still able to fully care for himself, his home and his garden. He still travelled on trains and planes alone which allowed him complete independence and happiness.

Today we visited St Peter Port and this is our blip of choice.  Some people are taking a chilly New Year walk out to the Castle lighthouse.
