Yougov.co.uk has step by step guidance for some of the legal aspects. Other websites assist with the funeral planning. #TheArchers

George might not *approve* but it might be good for him to see a different type of masculinity. As for questionable ??? floral shirts. I admire men who feel able to wear them. #TheArchers

Today was a strange day. It would have been my Mum Eloise’s 97th birthday today, 7/10/25. (She died in December 2021). I had a busy day but all the time she was at the back of my mind. It’s a peculiar feeling NOT having to buy a birthday card for your Mother. RIP Eloise 😘

I’ve recently re-read Parable of the Sower (part of a trilogy) by Octavia Butler. IMO she foresaw the future. I originally read the book when it was first published.

😢 Our friend Angus has gone. If you follow #TheArchers on FB you’ll know about Angus who used to live with Lonny Behar psychiatrist/therapist who gives a psychological take on the characters in the documentary/drama. I met Angus on my trip to NYC in 2023.

Cow and Gate is a brand of powdered milk for babies. I’m amazed that it still exists. I googled it to find a photo for you.

Evening All. Here a little early. Glorious sunshine here in the Deep South. Positively balmy this evening. Looked (yes, I do mean looked) at the garden in preparation for the Autumn tidy up. #TheArchers
