Well I dread to think how long it's been since my last blog but today I've had an idea that will hopefully help me in my old age or if I have a bump on the head!
Every now and then a memory pops up out of nowhere! And wouldn't it be sad if those nice memories of usually loved ones that have passed get more distant and grainy to the point of lucky if you remember them at all!
Which is why I'm creating this post so I can keep adding little snippits is that spelt right? Snip it's? Anyway I'm going to try and remember that when one of them pops up to edit this post and add it.
I'm sure it will be nice when I'm old to look back and go "oh yeah I'd forgotten about that". So that's what this is I just hope I remember that I've done it! Lol.
Today's snipit is of when I was about 12 and I spent a couple of weeks with my grandparents in hinckley Gaston and Joan. The reason it came back to me was because my dad was explaining to me the different types of rock and roll and the types of dancing they do to the types of music and he showed me a clip on you tube of people dancing called strolling.
Which brought up this snipit of me with my grandma and grandad at the sweet pea club where they used to go ballroom dancing and I would sit and watch them with my lemonade and packet of mini cheddars. And after a while my grandad would have to stop as he had a bad heart so grandma would have to go and dance with another man!

Yesterday's snipit was a little different slightly weird but in a nice way.
I was driving home from work and for some reason Steve hurt popped into my head and I just felt that I needed to phone his mum Jane! It was like I was phoning on behalf of him if that makes sense. Weird I know but that's how it was.
I called but Jane was driving so she text me with a preset text then we spoke later that night. I didn't mention at the time as it felt a little weird to say over the phone.
But today I text her and explained in a nice way so not to upset her what had happened. Which them brought me onto my snipit that Steve used to call me on his way home from work or if he had just landed back in the UK.
God I miss his calls we used to have a right good laugh together memories that hopefully I'll never forget (unless I have a bump on the head ) and as I'm writing this I hear his voice saying that last sentence at the same time as me just like he used to almost like finishing the sentence off together.
It's funny how writing things that your thinking makes you feel emotional but better at the same time like right now I'm recapping on the times we had together and the laughs and jokes.
Another snipit that always makes me laugh was when Steve was in hq talking to me about a psychic reading he had and we was talking about ghosts and things and he said if he dies first he'll come back and tell me and made a ghostly hoo hoooo noise. Anyway after he had passed away and Ian and me went round to see Jane we were stood in her kitchen and the wind blew the blinds in Jane kitchen and clattered and Ian shit himself and I smiled to myself and thought yep that was Steve!
