Stratford "mums and sons " weekend.

Dear John


how I miss you- today I have been so sad- I am going to Stratford with Andrew and Philip for our mums and sons -we are going to see Oppenheimer -It is getting good reviews.

I know how much you would have enjoyed this trip I think that is why I have been feeling so sad.

I went for a long walk in Sefton Park and the skies were blue and it was very cold- weather I love- it helped me feel better..

Shell have finally got  the pension sorted out -I will get some money- the new pension rate- on February 1st. We have not had anything since December 1st- so it will be good to have some money coming in- the state pension has not been sorted yet- but it will be in time- I just need to be patient.

I must go and get ready Andrew will be here in an hour....we will raise a glass to you at the Dirty Duck tonight....this is the official end of my January dryathon- although it is not the end of the month- it is for me--- I did drink wine on the night after your funeral-- but apart from that I have been a good girl-- you never really got me doing that..but you did admire my ability to do it-- giving up cakes is much harder for me...love you..my beloved John....xxx
