Pondering Dad

Crammed a lot in today. Including some bike chat over breakfast with Dad recounting tales of his solo trips to the Lake District on his bike when he was just 14. Then off to the bank to sort out new accounts for him before a quick detour to Taylor Park, where he used to bring us as kids and where we both had a moment. Then we had to visit two Hospices with my brother and sister as Mum will be moved from hospital over the weekend. Strangely, the one we chose for her (which is lovely) was on the other side of this park and she will have a view of the lake from her room.

After visiting Mum this evening Dad, Smithski and I went to the Comm to drink pints and talk pish. I then watched them both eat two pies each. I had peaked with the scampi fries and pork scratchings.
