In memory of an amazing gran and great granny, who kept me alive at college with her shepherds pie and fudge tart recipes!
We are glad we got to spend an afternoon pottering in the garden with you last month, tidying up under your watchful eye ❤️
Thank you to the hospital for looking after our gran in her last days with the dignity and compassion she displayed in her 94 years.
She taught me this quatrain as a small boy, and I've been rereading and thinking about it over the last week or so -
"The moving finger writes; and, having writ, moves on: nor all thy piety nor wit shall lure it back to cancel half a line, nor all thy tears wash out a word of it".
