Hi Mum, ‘Hiya Queen.’ I’m just sitting here, staring at the all the Christmas decs and wondering when I’ll find the motivation to take them down. ‘You’re funny you.’ I did get off the settee at one point and make my way over to the mantelpiece to make a start on the Christmas cards but …
Morning Mum, ‘Morning Love.’ It’s that funny old day again today, you know, December the 27th, the one after Boxing Day, the day before Charl’s Birthday, 2 days before our Grace’s and 3 before mine. It’s 4 days before New Year’s Eve and 5 before New Years Day. ‘It is Love you’re right.’ It’s always …

I’m not sure if my daughter and I were ever destined to blend in.The beauty of it is this…..it felt …
