Dad came with me on a short journey to the Isle of Wight. We went via Sherborne where Simon used to live. Stopped off at a farmhouse cafe for a jacket potato with beans and cheese. Scrumptious!! 😊

We continued on to the ferry where we sat on the top deck basking in the sun.

Got to our hotel on the beach front. Went for a long walk through the village of Yarmouth. Then sat on the beach watching the boats. There was a war ship anchored there. Sitting by itself with no activity aboard. We walked back to the hotel after watching the sunset.

Today we took the steam train from Havenstreet. We sat in the first class box to spend some quality time together. It was lovely to be on a steam train with him again. We reminisced about the days gone by.

Then he turned to me as if to say it’s time for me to go, you’re going to be alright. And off he went as he always does quite content. 😌

My Dad passed away on Sunday 28/07/2024
