Hello Darling, Such sad news! It's so tragic Jayne that Uncle Gerald has passed away. We are heart broken. He took a stroke & they operated on him but couldn't save him. We know only too well that awful feeling of being helpless!! The family are in total shock & devastation. Any time of the year is terrible but at this time, its so much worse. As we still cant think about Christmas till we get Granpa Gillies's anniversary passed on the 15th & we still miss him dearly 24 years later! We struggle to get through xmas without your sparkle! I hate shopping on my own, I still stand in the card shops crying buckets....how sad! Also poor Henrik our wee daft bird, we miss him squawking while we watch the tv, the silence is awful. We are finally having the girls on xmas day! so excited we will maybe enjoy our first xmas without you. They are just at the fun stage ripping every parcel open & getting so excited. Have to go now lots of catching up to do. Love you honey xxx
