Well, it is still only All Hallows Day (1st Nov), but most people prepare for visiting the graves of their dear departed the following day. Thankfully, since we brought my parents' ashes home in the summer we don't have to go too far. I managed to get some nice looking (they are Dutch!!) chrisanthemums and some night-light holders - some in red - to decorate the memorial. Tonight we will light the candles and think of them together. My Dad has been gone for over 50 years, my Mum for 30.
We're off to town tomorrow: Spamalot in the evening and a few days in the city for a change. Last week I was quite ill with the current coughing lurgy, but am beginning to get a bit better. Unfortunately now Roy is going down with it, but in close proximity of his favourite restaurants I am sure he will get over it quicker than I did.
