Not the greatest way to start the year…
Today brought the terrible news that a close friends youngest son, aged 9, died on Dec 23rd after an accident at home. Due to his age, the police have ordered an inquest, and hopefully they will be released for a funeral in the next 2-3weeks.
I’m not going to name names, to protect this persons privacy, but needless to say I’m mourning the loss for them. They were the friend I didn’t realise I had when I figured I’d lost pretty much everything else, and probably saved my life over xmas 3 years ago with friendship, good company, toast and pate and cigarettes, and are practically family in my book.
As soon as there’s a date set, I’m looking forward to heading up north to see them, and be there for them.
