The Economic Voice says:
“4 years ago my eldest daughter came to live with me and just after moving in I met my wife (The love of my life) so we went up to Bowness-on-Windermere where my wife to be was living and we went to the Beatrix Potter museum in Bowness with my new son (I would say stepson but I hate that expression) just as the film Miss Potter was released in the cinema and the soundtrack to the film was playing as we went around the museum.
It was like some of the years that I missed with my daughter and new son were erased in this magical experience. It was one of the most emotional days of my life and I will never forget how wonderful it was having two families become one. And this piece of music is my soundtrack to that day and period of my life.”

Oh my goodness that photo is the front of the lake at Bowness!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Thanks James.
My Mother and father in law lived on the right of the image behind the boats in the distance moored up. Very sad because my father in law has been diagnosed with Alzheimers and himself and wife moving down to Tenby to be within traveling distance from us. My poor mother in law is taking her last walks with her beloved husband on the beaches where they went in their youth before he goes into a home. If any of you pray, please pray for them tonight. Her name is Sue and needs a loving God to help her through this (Watching her second husband die slowly in front of her)and his name is Jim and he needs to be lead gently by the hand as he makes a frightening journey. And my wife who is losing a father she adores.
Thanks Dearieme……He is coming up to ten but I will show it to him anyway……..My Dad was a huge Alan Price fan.
A few months ago I was standing pretty much on that very spot at the lakeside in Bowness with my wife, son and daughter, and thinking about how I had stood by many lochs (our equivalent of lakes) with my Dad, who succumbed to Alzheimers. I don’t have a belief in God, but I do know that all things are connected in mysterious ways. Dad kept laughing to the end, mostly. The last time I saw him conscious he was laughing so much the tears were streaming down his face, and mine.
That’s beautiful Andrew…….I am so sorry for your loss.
Things can be so evocative.
Both pieces of music are beautiful.
I always love the way that TEV talks about his wife and family, it makes me feel warm inside
JLS is one of my favorite books, it has so many levels. The video representation is superb!
