There are so many things I wish I could say now and so much I wish he could tell me.

I'm lighting a candle for all the children whose lives were ruined or cut short by violence, neglect or abuse.

For My grandmother... A truly remarkable woman, with an MBE from the Queen to prove it. She taught me so much about life but failed at her attempt to turn me into a proper Lady. 6 years without her feels like a lifetime. I miss you. xxx
