Goodnight all. Remember The CAA Club Friday night?
This is how it finished. ‘The Old Comrades’ around the piano! I was so moved by the bond they shared, this was their 60th gathering at the club. Honoured to be part of it. #LestWeForget #Veterans #Remembrance

This Remembrance Sunday, I’m wearing my poppy with pride and a heavy heart. Remembering those who lost their lives in conflict, the futures they should have had, and the families whose lives were changed forever.
I’m also thinking of those still here. Those carrying grief quietly, and the good people who keep turning up to support them, long after the flowers have faded and everyone else has gone home. Loss touches all our lives. We cannot take away one another’s sadness, but we can sit beside it, put the kettle on, listen, and keep remembering together.
For those we lost, and those left behind. ❤️

That was bloody lovely!
And yes there was gravy. Lots of it. I just hadn’t put it on yet.
Now to find the motivation to wash up 😩

This is Charlie Lord, my dad's uncle, spitfire pilot in the Royal Air Force during WW2. The Chas & Dave song 'Flying' was written about him. Second Photo is of my son Harry when he was eight, who took Charlie's flying cap to school to talk about him in class. #Remembrance #Lestweforget #WW2 #spitfire #Spitfirepilot

I don’t think I’ll ever understand how people can read that someone’s family is grieving and still choose to leave a cruel comment. Some of the things people said on my post about my brother-in-law’s passing were hard to wrap my head around. Those comments say more about the people who wrote them than they ever could about him.
All of us struggle behind closed doors. It feels better to go through life giving people a little grace and empathy. We have no idea what someone might be carrying, and it’s so easy to make asumptions from a few lines on a screen.
I’m sharing this video of the Chapel of Rest again this morning because I needed the comfort of watching it myself. It reminds me that my Wesley is truly at rest, wrapped in the Savior’s arms. ♥️

Sweet dreams little friend. . For anyone wondering. I bury my chickens when they pass. They are my pets.
They go under the apple tree..
