What a lovely spot to chose for a final resting place he made, the bulb planting sounds a really nice touch.

When we lost Heather's brother aged 39 he joined his Father in the family grave (in Norfolk) but we planted several trees in a local Woodland Trust (Watkins Wood) site in his memory.
Sadly we lost his Mum two years ago and have been unable to place her with her husband and son yet due to covid restrictions/risk, as with Jim we had more trees planted on the same Woodland Trust site, it is a lovely place of quiet in the secluded South Devon Avon valley and a lovely place to visit.

Is the fallen tree just old age Gordon or is that a disease do you think ?



M-I-L dies right at the start of the epidemic. Old age not Covid. But she lived in Tenerife for the last 20 years of her life and her husband is burried there. So SWMBO want to fly over there taking her ashes with her. All efforts to persuade her to post the ashes have failed.



We were very fortunate in as much that we could hold her funeral down here in Devon (where she lived) one month prior to Covid hitting us so those that travelled from overseas and different parts of Britain were able to attend.

We'll make her final journey to Thetford later on this year hopefully.

I'm sure DHL will sort you out provided you tell them it's talcum powder for personal use only.
