He was a very nice man and I remember great times at the Sands club with him… including the time I got hypnotised by - I think it was Johnny Hillyard… anyway every time the band played “ I’m in the mood for love”..I was grabbing poor Tommy and waltzing with him..such good fun those days. My best regards to all his family.. we need Tommy and clubs like that again.! “ Silvo”

It isn’t a special day or Anniversary Tom but just thinking about you, which I do often, it’s been a weird time of late with the Pandemic and being on lock downs. I haven’t been able to stroll about like I used to.....I just get my
shopping in, but no pleasure in it.....by the time I get home I’m gasping for breath because of the mask. On Monday it will be a bit different but still wearing masks til some time in June. We’ve been lucky and we are all safe and healthy. I miss you being around and about. I saw your pal James today he’s had a rough time with his health but appears to be ok now.....he was saying he missed you and your conversations. Well that’s all for now. I’ll be seeing you....Love You.....thanks for Loving Me......’Till’. ‘Yours’

Happy 85th Birthday Tom......9 years have gone by so quickly. It’s been a strange year for us - lock-ins.....which we have all enjoyed in our pub/club days but this has been a lot different - no get-togethers - family or otherwise. Hope your Pub In The Sky is doing OK and keeping you busy. “Spirits Are Us” must have some great nights with Talli Halliday, Dougie James and Johnny Leeze joining you....I can just hear you now ‘Last Orders Please’ ......’Haven’t You Got Homes To Go To’......... ‘Till’....’Yours’.....’I’ll Be Seeing You’.........

9 years have passed since you left us on this day. We’ve just come through a strange year and we’ve got a long way to go until we are back to some kind of normal. We are all doing OK the little ones are growing up fast. I’m doing my best to keep fit but it is difficult because I can’t trot down the Avenue as many times as I used too.....it’s not much fun at the moment anyway. “Till” “yours”....I’ll be seeing you in all the old familiar places.....

Happy Birthday, Dad. Always thinking of you. When I'm writing I think of you and Mum all the time. I play Mantovani and think of all those lovely old films that you and mum used to watch. All the make up artists :) I want this book to be full of love for you and mum, the highs and the lows, the love and laughter - but mostly the love. It's got to have heart, hasn't it. I hope it does. I hope it's a fitting tribute to all the love and happiness you and mum shared. Jessie and Harry are really Tom and Joan, two little kids who fell in love and had a happy ending.

Why can I never find the words to write, Dad when you mean so much? It absolutely baffles me when the words spill out at other times. I think it's because it makes me too sad to remember what we have lost.

A father is such an important man in a girl's life. He is the man all others are judged by. I know you weren't perfect but you were my dad and you put your family first and protected us all. You showed us how to be tender and kind-hearted and that it was perfectly natural to cry when you were happy and cry when you were sad.

It's good to be able to remember all the happy times now instead of always grieving for what can never be again. Night, Dad. Love you xxxx
