As we walked to Youthie tonight Lincoln said to me “You’re happy today Daddy, you’re going to be happy tomorrow and the next day and the next and the next, I’m glad you’re happy again!” We chatted all the way to Market Field and off he went into the Wych Centre leaving me to walk […]
Just got in from playing pool and pleased we actually won a match sadly too rare this season so to take all the points with a 5 3 win against White Lion a good side with some very good players was really good! With no car because I can’t tax it because the MOT ran […]
