I thought that I'd say how very sorry I am to hear about your Mum. She took me in and allowed me to stay under her roof. I was very grateful and didn't mind heading down to Safeway every now and then "for a few bits." She always seemed busy with a half ton of ironing, a cloud of smoke and some afternoon TV. Tutting at the radio, leafing through the Express and sending thunderbolts towards Brent Council. Her life wasn't easy but it was underpinned with a sense of humour and she'd roll her eyes at whatever daft nonsense I'd come up with. She was a characterful and colourful person and the World is poorer for her passing. I shall send a "Mrs R" letter to the cosmos in protest...Sean... (Sometimes known as "Pet.)
