Funeral visit

I went on a funeral visit with Ian today: the first one that I've attended. The family had very kindly allowed me to come along, and it was very interesting. Difficult, at time, but Ian has a very light touch. This is one of those occasions when I absolutely can't discuss what we talked about, but he allowed the family to talk, led them through the service and was calm but empathetic at the same time. I was very impressed, and learned a lot.

Discovered that it was a real pain not having a main machine, and after trying to use the server, I discovered that it was struggling. so, I've ordered a new one. Or pieces therefore to build one. Moo loves it when I do these sorts of things.

funny really taking funerals is already part of my job,... b ut if I tried to build a "box" it would probably be a bird box!
 
... also on a serious note listening to the details of othr folks memories is a huge privilige, and an awesome task is laid upon us- to sum up a precious life...
