Oh, what a day.

I do feel that any personal comment on the  journey of the cortège from Buck House to Westminster Hall would be superfluous for those who, like me, watched it in awe and heartache, whilst for those insufficiently interested, irrelevant - so I'll just say that it was a heavy burden to carry on an afternoon laden with the weightiest of emotions. 

Afterwards, I had a walk in the afternoon sunshine and took today's pic showing our green and pleasant land which seems appropriate for the day.

Tonight, in a lighter vein, my bro, niece and two nephews all came for dinner - family is all at the end of the day.
