Well Sandie, you had just moved into Winchester Avenue, we always played near the slope at the front of your house. I only have flickers of memory from way back due to head trauma from abuse but I remember how our friendship grew over the years through your hairdressing and later our spiritual interests.

Our friendship has always been that one in a million, we drifted through our life on individual paths then we would bump into each other more and more until that phone call or night out was needed. The crap we've shewed off, the tears we've shared and the laughs are always in my heart.

I always said you deserved a gold medal my dear friend, especially when you had twins on your lap and a little one playing horsey on your leg with tiredness in your eyes but you still had that smile on your face even then.

Well I guess now I'll natter from time to time on here and I hope your fabulous children along with all who love and have known you will join in and share your memories.

Peace and light my friend, nite nite xxx
