Sunday

Today has been a funny day... Sunday's usually are.
Church found us finally back in the church after our waterworks crisis which is still not completely over.
Then lunch with a lovely couple to discuss their marriage,they seem really happy and as friends it's nice to see them grow in love.
Then on to the end of a lady's 52 year marriage with her husband's death.
I am always amazed to hear people's work path.
Navy at 17 leaving Mytholmroyd for the tail end of war with Japan.
Metropolitan police at 22 where he had to grow a moustache because he looked too young.
At 24 he was sent to a convalescent home to recover from TB he had contracted from tramps and "other low life."
At 26 and with only.one lung he was sent back north "back to his native air" on doctor's recommendation.
At 27 he trained as a bookeeper, going on to be the finance director of a local large firm.
I wonder what some of our local finance sector would make of this man's ability to switch career.
I wonder what I would have done with his disabilities.
His final act of generosity was to leave his body to science... We need a few more like him.
