Birthday Book for Dad.

It's funny, but it usually takes a wedding or a funeral for connection between wider family members and I ask myself why wait for special events . . . but I've gone and done that thing, with this project! I suppose we're too busy and live too far apart. 

Note to self - Stop and smell the roses!

Dad is 80 this month, and I thought it would be fun to put together some reminiscence about him from his family and friends. Turns out to be a lovely thing to do. 

I've been sent lots of great photos, which I've never seen before, and received such heartwarming and funny stories it makes all the hours grumbling at my computer (editing under/over exposed, scratched and oddly focused old photos) well worth it.

Dad always signs off All the Best so it seems an apt title for a book about him . . . 

Here are a few pages from All the Best.
