Grand National Day

Dear Ella

It's that time of the year - Grand National and those words "there is something in your shoulder we don't like the look of".  Remember it so clearly…..we heard the words, wept in disbelief, sat on a bench on the downs, said it will never happen - and that was the hope we lived with for the next two and a half years.

We had to live with hope - it gets you through.

As promised U Jim placed a bet for you to day…


Ella's horse for me - (£5 bet on) - One in a Milan (Million!)

Of course you are one in a million - it didn't win - a bit like you…… but not for want of trying.

Lots of love
Mum
