brother


My brother’s brilliant (despite being over 4 years younger than me)! Although we don’t see each other as often as we’d like, we get on really well and I love him dearly. Just received a lovely, entertaining letter from him - he does things like that - enclosing an Easter Card to him from John Sentamu (Archibishop of York to you) as he knows he’s a bit of hero of mine. He suggested that I either keep it for his autograph or give it to a friend called “Alan” next Easter! Three years ago Alan and I went to the Bromyard Folk Festival (just a boys’ weekend you understand!) and, despite the rain, had a really great time…. I’m currently trying to persuade him back this September (as long as he brings his impressive tent).

What a lovely post to read! Family is such a brilliant thing and reading such good things about Alan is a great tribute.

MEG+ELLE: Alan+I are definitely going to the Bromyard Folk Festival this summer (I just need to book the tickets!); maybe this time I'll shave my head so we look like brothers?
