So very sad to say my gorgeous husband Richard passed away this morning… I can’t comprehend never being able to chat, laugh and confide in him ever again… he was such an incredible person, so terribly sad. Remembering the many,
many amazing moments we shared ❤️ love you forever

Many years after D-Day, wreckage & personal items were found of Lt Col Meehan’s C47 that was shot down on the flight into the D-Day beaches. Note how it says all the chaps parachute hooks were locked, confirming none could have escaped. Very sad

Swimming in a fish bowl
Year after year
Running over the same old ground
What have we found?
The same old fears
Wish you were here ❤️

On this day 27 years ago, Richard and I went on our first date and started going out. It was Easter Saturday and I remember we went for a bike ride together.
I can’t believe he’s not here… wish I could chat to him again. Missing my guiding star ❤️

As you all know I’ve been so excited about going to Arnhem Friday, especially after it was cancelled twice last year. Done a ton of reading and watched ABTF! However it seems Operation Market Garden is a bridge too far… 0% successful 😔

Saw “One life” tonight… not a sound in the audience, everyone was captivated by it. All you could hear was crying at the end.
Excellent and moving film, I cried the whole way through. Must read more about it.

Chatting to the guy in newsagent… “I’m going to a history festival at the weekend”…
“history?”
“Yes it’s like Glastonbury but history… WW2 and tanks, there’ll be tanks”…
“Oh and it’s at a brewery 🍺🍺”
Don’t think he was convinced
