Neil, last night we had a family BBQ to celebrate Bonnie’s first birthday & someone came up with the idea to play what was number 1 in the music charts on the dates of our birth & 18th birthday. You would have loved it, there were some absolute shockers, particularly on my dates!! You, however, came out of it quite well with “Those were the Days “ by Mary Hopkin number 1 on your 18th. Had you been born 2 days later though you would have had the epic “Hey Jude” by The Beatles & I was immediately transported back to the heady days of the Newcastle A.C. coach trips! Sitting together & the whole coach load of teenagers singing along to that famous chorus of “Nah, nah, nah, na na na, nah”!! What fantastic times they were, such special memories to me now especially as it was at the athletics track that we first met. As ever, you are always included in our gatherings with much love & it never takes very much to trigger some memory or other of you. We love you so much ❤️ Jan & all the family xxx
