My wife, dog and me had a great day yesterday, out in the morning to buy some bedding and tomato plants and then a whole afternoon in the garden, with my job being just to move the heavy stuff around and Max responsible for clearing the area of voles and all other furry creatures.
Life was good, no make that very good and I suppose it still is for us, although after waking this morning and hearing the news of all those young people needlessly killed and mutilated by a bomb not far from here in Manchester, the city that is home to our daughter and her family, I now feel nothing but sadness. The passage of time will quickly change that for me but not, alas, for all those families directly effected and the thousands of young kids who were there and will now forever associate music concerts with terrorists and death.
Sorry for my somber mood this morning.
I'm off for a walk with the dog, time for someone else to come on tbn and lighten things up.
