My Weekend.Sat 29th/Monday the 31st !
Hi, one and all, well I drove to Coulsden in Surrey on Saturday, set off from
Llandeilo at 4.15 am and arrived at 9am,The car behaved very well and I was able to appreciate the remap done recently.Brilliant what more can I say.!!! Was invited to a friend's Birthday party in the afternoon (he is ten), but to be honest I was very tired and did not participate as much as I would have liked to. Sunday the 30th. Travelled down to Goring by Sea, with my friends and had a private ceremony of sprinkling my Rosebud's ashes in the sea,as the tide was going out, very, very emotional,but it was Rosebud's last request to me, after sprinkling the ashes we had lunch then back to Coulsden. Monday the 31st.I travelled down to Brighton after saying goodbye to my friends, visited Brighton Marina, then back to Goring by Sea to say y last goodbye to my beloved Rosebud I failed to get accommodation in Goring by sea, so went to Chichester for the night (Premier Inn). Monday the 31sf Set off from Chichester about 10 am and arrived home around 2 pm. (I shed many a tear on the way home). All in all a very emotional weekend. I would like to finish now with a few lines to my beloved Ro.sebud I thought of you with love today, But that is nothing new I thought about you yesterday And days before that too. I think of you in silence and often speak your name All I have a memories and your picture in a frame Your memory is my keepsake with which I'll never part God has you in his keeping I have you in my heart. As you know, never the same. Roy (just an old man now). Take good care of your loved ones. Thank you for your kindness and patience with me. |

Hello Roy. What a lovely poem to your Rosebud. The memories that you have can not be taken away, ever. You are a lucky man, in that you and your Rosebud had many happy years together. Those can never be taken away from you., and you will always remember the good, happy times. Sleep well my friend, you have many happy times to dream about as you go to sleep at night. Always look upwards.
