POSTS STORIES REELS TAGGED

Well, Kathleen, who can believe we're hitting 50 this year?

This photo is us at 19 years old, on the way back from a college trip to Edinburgh to observe a high court case.

The case involved a man who had admitted killing someone after striking them with an axe 57 times, but somehow, there were questions as to whether or not it was murder. The case had very little to do with our business law module, but it was offered as an incentive to ensure that we would visit Companies House in the afternoon (much more suited to business law).

We never made it to Companies House, opting instead to go to the pub. The whole gang was there, all of us piled into a corner in some olde worlde pub in the Grassmarket.

The return bus journey was a bit more riotous. Lots of laughter, singing and general mayhem.

A standard gathering for us.

We listened to the Wannadies as they sang the You and Me Song and I remember thinking that life was pretty fucking epic.

Sometime during the return journey, I had my diary out, presumably because I needed to check the dates for something in my busy schedule which mostly involved going out drinking with you and the rest of the college crowd.

Fuck knows why I had a diary, I was always carrying one around with me, a habit that could seem ridiculous if it weren't for the fact that I got to capture this moment.

You wrote in it, commemorating the date that we got pissed on a bus trip, and I knew straight away that I would keep this little diary cutting, sensing somehow that we were coming to the end of a chapter.

Two days later I met the man who would become my first husband and things changed in a momentous way.

You were by my side when I married him and there to comfort me when we got divorced.

You were at my wedding to my second husband (heavily pregnant but still looking fabulous) and long after our divorce you were the first person to get in touch when you found out he had died.

Our lives have taken different paths over the years and we haven't seen so much of each other, but I've always known you were there for me.

Whenever we catch up, we just fall straight back into our easygoing chatter as if we were 19 again, listening to Pau

🙏🏿🕊 Focus on my achievement. 🕊🙏🏿

🙏🏿🕊 Appreciation, @dozy_writes. My solace for your bereavements. I retort to your inquisition, but what if our impact can be felt in a way that is far more simplistic but just as important? I stand inclined towards artwork. I halt learning and development vastly perennials. 🕊🙏🏿

🙏🏿🕊 Concéntrate en mi logro. 🕊🙏🏿

🙏🏿🕊 Agradecimiento, @dozy_writes. Mi consuelo por tus duelos. Respondo a su pregunta, pero ¿qué pasaría si nuestro impacto se pudiera sentir de una manera mucho más simplista pero igualmente importante? Me inclino por las obras de arte. Detengo el aprendizaje y el desarrollo de plantas enormemente perennes. 🕊🙏🏿
