After holiday blues

So the money has come to an end and the holiday has had to come to an end too. I was going to write so much as so much has gone through my head during the long hours on the road but now nothing is left except this feeling of loneliness. Nothing new there! Everyone says I am good at making friends but this is not the case, I am shy, withdrawn and the older I get, more grouchy!

Today is August 18th and I have just realised that it is the anniversary of the death of my father - 1978, I was 24 - 36 years ago. It seems like yesterday. All of this has lead me to having a look at family on the net! The problem of dying young is that the little ones don't get to know their grand parents. Were you to ask William (my father's name!) who his paternal grandfather was, I don't think he would even know!

Not really well done but a little about his paternal side.
