How Was Your Day? VII

[Glen1]

Parkerman just started the book .. May I ask did you keep a diary , make notes later on, or is it memory recall ?...

[parkerman]

The first chapter is part memory and part from autobiographies my mum and dad each wrote. Most of the rest is memory recall. I did start keeping a diary in December 1964 so some of the dates right at the end are taken from that, though the incidents themselves I remember well.

I have a good memory - it comes in handy in quizzes.

I heard that in one london borough they tried to re house single parents and make them go to Hastings, Birmingham etc. They challenged and stayed. I wont say anymore as many Forum members are all reading your book!

I'm feeling really upset today because my beloved cat, Simba, has been put to sleep. He was about 13 years old (I adopted him as an adult cat so not exactly sure of his age) and had been suffering from heart failure for a few months. I'll miss him.

Some photos if anyone's interested:-

Annoyed at having his picture taken:

Snuggled with my dog, Kite:



RIP

(I'm seeing my daughter and granddaughter in a bit so that'll cheer me up.)

Thanks. Simba didn't suffer.

That's funny about your dog and bossy boots cat!

That's so sad, Dazzle. I am a great cat lover myself. I've had a total of seven cats in my life - still have two. It's just awful when they die or are put to sleep. I've always wished cats could live as long as us. 13 or 14 years is just such short life. It's good to hear that Simba didn't suffer.
