The Last Weekend

Friday - had no time for a snooze. Had to go to Tedder School to pick the boys up on their last day and collect all their work and files to take to their new school. Its strange to think they won't go to that little school anymore. Alex's entire school life has been in a school of on average 100 children!
Gave the boys their last British fish and chips and we had our last Friday night at the club. Got some more calendar photos!! Jen, Mark and Sam came up. Lannie and I had some moments!! Christine and Howard, er sorry....Tony came up and gave me a lovely card I will keep for ever! Marina and Howard will ride again, someday! Thank you both and thank you Helen for all your hard work.Andy, Liz and the boys came up and we got some lovely photos. Had a chat with Paul then came home.
It had gone midnight so said Happy Birthday to Lannie and gave her her pressie. Time to sleep I think.
Had some awful news tonight about the very sad death of one of our friends at Digby. Dave, who had been posted to Cyprus. He has been killed today in an accident. Dave was one of the nicest young guys you could ever meet. Always friendly, always polite and utterly lovely. I used to call him my eye candy! I remember the first day he came to Digby. It was a sunday afternoon and his parents had helped him move into the block, and they all came to the bar. You may of gathered I'm big on family, and I thought it lovely they had helped him move in. Its so bloody sad that such a wonderful young man could be gone.
