HEY DAD


Its driving me doo-lally that I can't focus on the blog and give it the proper attention it deserves while I pass through the family duty and organisational phase following Dads death. I have stories queueing to leave my mind like buses in a bus garage. The funeral is this Friday, so I will be posting bits and bobs from press days and such this week. From 19th April I will have full ownership of my mental faculties again, and I can't wait to geek-out in my office and set free my trapped posts.

I'll leave you with a snapshot of one of the bookshelves in my office. The picture is of my father when he was 28. I realise I bought him the book 'Laptops for Seniors in Easy Steps' which is on the shelf, but I never gave it to him. :(

  5. Please don't feel guilty or the urge to blog until you are ready. I don't think I blogged till a good few weeks after my Dad died because I had nothing to say and I was too busy running around organising his funeral. We will be here when you get back.
