Not sure I'm going to be able to make it this year now. :(
Anna's Dad had a heart attack on Friday night so she has gone down to Wales to help look after her Mother who isn't to agile. Long story but she had Leukemia a few years ago and hasn't got much use of her left side and had a fall a couple of weeks ago and broke her right arm and shoulder so now struggles to walk as she uses a stick.

If I am unable to attend I will defo be at Deliverence so will see you all there.


Sorry to hear that Norrie. I hope, of course, that he makes a full recovery. However, with the sudden loss of Heather's mum last month, I know something of what you're going through.

Yeah you feel lost how to help the most.
It breaks my heart to see Anna upset about her Dad but all you can do is offer support.

Friday night at the Red Lion booked ... no room available for Saturday so will probably just drive home if I'm not too tired.

That's about the long and the short of it. In the end you can just be as supportive as you can and be ready to do anything you can. At least I had quite a lot to do arranging the funeral and winding up my mother in law's affairs and I could take the time off to do it. If there's anything I can do.

Good to hear that. Maybe Anna's dad's heart attack was a warning and therefore a good thing. Heather's mum might have been fine with a bit of angioplasty, but no one knew she had a problem, so one night she just simply died in her sleep.

I take it you're riding down. I'll be driving on Friday if all goes to plan, and back on Saturday afternoon/evening.

Oh and I've still got a wee parcel sitting in my kitchen if you want it. I should be in most evenings this week.
