Cleeve Walk

Dale came down for the day.  A walk up and over Cleeve Hill on a chilly autumn day.  The trees holding onto their auburn coloured leaves looked fabulous against the bleakness of the common.

Supper was interesting - the dish that the curry was in, split as I took it out the oven.

Mum

Yesterday - we all said our sad farewells to mum.  Following the cremation in Stourbridge, a beautiful service was held at All Saints, Sedgley.  A church we went to as children, I got married there, dads service was there and mum spent many hours there, singing with the Mothers Union - it was a service/day that truly reflected mum.     God you bless mum.

The previous weekend - mum knitted the jumper in the pictures below for me, nearly forty years ago, there's a thirty four year gap between the two pictures.  The latest picture was taken just over a week ago in Devon - where Sharon and myself had a blessed weekend by the sea, walking the coast together.
