My Bobby

This is my Bobby, my Grandfather, he was a great man, so many wonderful memories. One of my favourites is how he used to give me a hand massage before I played a game of soccer and how that session time always started at 5pm and no matter what I was doing I had to open his first beer at 5pm, it was my job :) Oh and the 'Cream Lillies' that he used to buy me, so good!!

I am really sorry that Daniel never got to meet Bobby, I think they would have got on really well. In Bobby's house you always got a full cooked breakfast every morning which included sausages, there was always beer ready for session time and you could smoke at the kitchen table (not that Daniel smokes any more!!).

My Bobby passed away 16 years ago today.

I truly believe that he had a hand in me meeting Daniel, I was away at his funeral when the Peer Support Training was on, so I had to do make up sessions after school, so did Daniel and that is how we officially met!!

Anyway I just wanted to reflect on my Bobby, I could spend hours telling you about all my memories, so many good stories to tell :)

My week so far has been relatively quiet, work has been busy but not insanely so. I called into the Nursing Home to see Aunty Elaine today and I also popped in to see Mrs Thompson, she is my really good friend Gemma's Nan, she moved into the home yesterday. It was really lovely to be able to see her and see how she is going.

So anyway must go, time for bed, still recovering from the weekend!!!

Till next time take care xxx
