Alex is now getting comfortable walking a few steps, so he was fitted out for his first "proper" shoes today.
Whilst we were out shopping I spotted an old friend. After catching up with her with Alex and Chris we stopped and chatted for a while. It's been a long time since we last spoke, and it made me think that we all say things like "We'll keep in touch" with good intentions, but let friendships drift. Real good friends are hard to find and I think it's a shame when they are lost.
I then recieved a message from my sister that a early childhood friends dad - a really great chap - had passed away at 87. "Uncle" John was a true character and a really good man. My sympathies and love go out to his family.
