Hello my Darlings, Firstly Jayne what an achievement Stuart & his friend did for you, A hundred mile run in 2 days! I told him he was mad but he insisted he wanted to do it in your memory. I'm so proud of him he raised £1800. Aly your doocot has gone & Kevin has replaced it with a gin hut for me & a Wendy house for the girls & guess what they're calling it......? Catch the pigeon! It was Millie's suggestion & Lola loved it. You would love the girls & the way they are growing up so fast. They miss grumpy grandpa & talk about you all the time. The dancing girls had another great charity night for your Anniversary & they raised £1500 plus all the fantastic donations on your memorial page which is now over £400 . Honestly Jayne I am so proud of you that they wont forget how wonderful you are. Friends & family that still want to remember you in such a kind & generous way. It does our hearts good to see all of them on these occasions. We had to say goodbye to our lovely friend Izzy Fraser. Poor Gail, Kevin & Eilidh it's so heart breaking for them. She was so full of fun & we've got lots of happy memories of the parties we all had together. She will be reunited with her beloved Jim & beautiful Lynne. There are some gorgeous angels now in heaven & I hope your all together having a ball! Have a drink on us at the bells...cheers xxxx Now the crap stuff! Mark has got the dreaded covid, he was so unwell I was distraught seeing him leave to go to the hospital, thankfully he returned with medication & is feeling much better. Ann has it & now Jean, it's just so awful making everyone unwell. I have got Mark locked upstairs in isolation so that I can avoid it!. Everything is so much harder to deal with not having you around Aly to help me through it. We miss you both dreadfully & think of you all the time. Well Mark has finally got a house, it's a doo'er upper so we are hoping everyone will muck in & get it decorated as he doesn't have his handy man dad to do it! This is our project for the New Year to keep us occupied & make it a special happy home for him, he so deserves a bit of luck. I am going to go now & see the back of 2021 out. What can I say thank goodness it's over! I love you both dearly & Rufus too! Sleep tight my Darlings x Love Mark, Lola & Milliexxxx
