Happy Birthday Sue

It's almost three years since my old school friend Sue died. Today would have been her birthday and so I have spent a few minutes in the dusty rooms of my memories opening virtual boxes of faded memories and good times and laughter.
Sue always had much better dress sense and knew how to wear a hat - I remember this moment as though it was only yesterday - we were off to her sister's wedding - such a wonderful weekend and a treasured memory.

Missing an old friend 20th June 2011

My school friend Sue Hollingshead died last year. Today 20th June would have been her 50th birthday but as I can't send her a card I thought I would share a memory from our school years.
My birthday is December and very close to Christmas, consequently it often got forgotten or I would get one present to cover my birthday and Christmas. Being the the kind person she was she declared I could celebrate my half birthday on her birthday so we'd both have something to celebrate. So here I am Sue celebrating my half birthday and hoping that somewhere you're raising a glass.......
