Sincerest Thanks to all, It's deffo not been the easiest of weeks, but I can honestly say that my blackest thoughts have been alleviated through the salve of music, and a great family, both immediate and extended.

My Dad was 91 and had been getting frail for quite a while, we knew it(death) was on the horizon, but it's still a shock when it finally arrives. TBH not really sunk in fully, he's always been there for some well placed advice or a hug, and considering his generation, he was genuinely a cool, compassionate, caring and loving guy.

Compared to my relatively safe life, he lived through extraordinary times and circumstances, and because of WWII and what came after, lived a life very much on the edge, filled with both peril and adventure.

I think if he could look back, he'd consider it a life well lived.
He left us a bunch of notebooks about his early life which have to be seen to be believed. He really was a special guy and will be sorely missed.
