Driving into Hospital yesterday and I was behind a car with the reg no B4 HOY.

Bought a lump to my throat.

We're lucky, we get to see a bit of Katrina from time to time, and she gets a laugh from the wee ones' antics around her extensive ladybird collection. Reminds me of Lawrence telling me not to be too hard on them one time I was round with an unruly Eilidh :-)

I also get to smile at the random assortment of pics of Lawrence dotted around while we are there :D

Puts all of today's global economic meltdown into firm perspective I think.

Over a year now, but still think of him quite often with fond memories.

With plenty of time on my hands, every S_E1 post from '99 onwards on my hard drive, a photo collection of us lot the size of Everest, he pops up quite regularly.

I still can't pass a blue Discovery without squinting to see the numberplate, ready to wave. :(

(Pops up unexpectedly)

I am going hill-climbing this year purely and simply becasue I told him once that I would. It will be emotional for sure - but in a happy way :)
