Bittersweet memories

Twenty five years ago, today, The (then not) Husband met my Dad. Just a few weeks after he and I got together.

It was Dad's 71st birthday, so today, he would have turned 96.

To say that they hit it off, would be an understatement. They had an instant rapport: shared a love of beer, whisky and merciless teasing. Of me.

I have no photo of them together. We discussed his moving to Cape Town to live with us. Dad died a mere 10 months later.

I miss them both.

Until next time

I blog here, on Instagram and via WordPress to my own website. I write for love and a living and you'll find out more about that here. Content for the first two, and sometimes the last, cross pollinate.
