I know I’m supposed to be writing about the writing but I just wanted to share with you one of those special moments in a mum’s life. We all climbed Castle Crag, in the Lake District. Not the highest Wainwright by any stretch of the imagination but the last one on Mike’s list. He has climbed all 214, over the last few years. It’s a tremendous achievement. It was also our dear grandson’s first Wainwright. He made it all the way to the top with just a few chocolate incentives. So proud of him. And to cap it all, it was our Hannah’s birthday. A treasured moment, with champagne. What could be better.

I’d like to say something deeply profound, but the picture speaks for itself.
