September 2025
As you’ll expect, much of
this month was taken up with our new Grandson, Oliver. It’s all very exciting and it’s great
to be able to be involved. We
spent quite a lot of time over at his home, just being there and lending
a hand whenever possible while at the same time being available for a
hold or a cuddle. It has to be
said that there’s not a whole lot of actual interaction, but seeing the
first month of him being here means that every glance or grasp has huge
significance and that’s just lovely to be part of. Hannah and Ben are doing fine and so is
Oliver. All that stuff we learned
during our degrees and post-graduate work is now personified in Oliver,
which is simply amazing.
In between times, we
managed to find time for our judicial work, radio stuff, school
governance, NHS work and so on.
Not surprisingly it’s quite tiring, but we’ll manage and it’s
nothing like as tiring as bringing up a new baby!
Oh, and we need a new roof
which will be done next month! A
bit of a dent in the savings!
