Remembering

My brother texted me this morning out of the blue to remind me that our Uncle Walter died on Grand National Day three years ago so it is an anniversary of his death tomorrow.

My mother's birthday on the 22nd April, the eve of St George's Day. Ingrid's father's birthday was April 21st as was that of her maternal grandfather - the Queen's real birthday.

I don't remember my father's birthday which is a great shame as he was a real character. In Bradford I was often asked if I was "Big Jim's lad"! I will use this blog to record some of the moth eared and half remembered snippets I can recall about him.

It is good to remember.
