Thanks everyone for your pm's, text messages, e-mails and phone calls over the last couple of weeks, they have really helped

Maggie was a much loved person, not only by me and her family but by a huge circle of friends from over the years. We couldn't believe how many turned up for her service last wednesday and the most amazing array of flowers which I knew she would have loved.

As we turned into the gates of the crematorium there was a huge line of people waiting to get in. We thought they hadn't started letting them in yet but as we got out of the car we were told the room was full

They managed to get some into the aisles and luckily those outside could still hear the service and the wonderful words spoken by one of her sisters, Dawn.

It took so long to get around the flowers and speak to everyone it was lucky there wasn't another service following.

Maggie then had the most amazing send off in our local pub, the Trawl. So good I hardly remember getting home and there were plenty who never got to work the next day

A special thanks to those of you who turned up on Wednesday, I really apreciated it. Now's the real hard part of getting over it, which I don't suppose I ever will but I know I can really rely on you guys to help. Roll on the weekend for the IOM trip.

I've returned home after staying at my Mam & Dads so tonight is a real tester for me, but I've got a bottle of rum to keep me company so I should be okay.

Take care everyone and thanks again

Love

That's a post I've been looking forward to seeing;)
