Funeral celebration

 To Dumfries today to celebrate the life of Pirate's oppo and friend.

A day of strong and blustery winds and showers, heavy at times.

A day of celebrating, remembering and catching up with old friends.

A sad and happy day all in one.

A really blustery day as well.

And a smile...what do you think?!

  2. The version I heard from a man from China, in the days before the economic boom there:

    Heaven is:
    Chinese food
    Japanese wife
    American salary
    British home (castle)

    Hell is:
    British food
    Japanese home (small)
    Chinese salary
    American wife

  3. Very funny. Mirco-management is everywhere. No exceptions made.

  4. Have seen that somewhere before and another version that takes on the wider world. A good send off is all about those who remain - a reflection on the groups of friends the deceased gathered about themself.

    1. It was difficult to recognise some people in more formal wear....in other words not in cycling kit! But good to reconnect with others
