Just realised that I haven't posted in a week! I'm shocked - this wasn't in the plan at all. I don't really know where the week has gone to be honest.
Last night we all met at the rugby club, where Sophie and Ben planted a tree in the grounds in memory of their dad. Stuart's ashes were scattered where the tree was planted and a plaque was revealed to show everyone the importance of the tree. Afterwards we all let some Chinese lanterns go, against the backdrop of the enormous moon. They float so peacefully, and we watched them until they were tiny dots in the sky, and then they disappeared. A fitting tribute.
Tonight it was back to the rugby club, where a cheque was presented to Macmillan for £2,300. This was the money raised at Stu's funeral in lieu of flowers. Such was his popularity. Quite an achievement!
So I did another run today! I've now received my Macmillan vest for the Great North Run, so I thought I'd better get my act together, as currently, I can't run for a bus. Toby is no help though; he keeps sitting down in protest. He's not the most athletic of pooches. I'm going to have to leave him at home next time.
So I've set up my web page (as below), early days, but the early bird catches the worm, they say. Here's hoping I catch a good few!!
