Well my dear friends, 2009 is drawing to a close and I for one am not sorry. For me and my family it was one of the worst years we have experienced. We lost many family members and friends this year through various causes. I know that we are not alone in our torment and would like to thank everyone for their unending support and love.

After meeting with Stuart and Kayo, we…

The chosen charity was St.Gemma's Hospice in Leeds. What we didn't know at the time was that Ray would be making use of the services offered by St.Gemmas's quite so soon. My daughter and I are going to London on Saturday to give…
