    Quick opinions please.

    You remember the old chap who took off his hat when mums hearse drove past.

    I was gonna send this in a card:

    Dear *No 19*

    I just wanted to drop you a short note to say thank you.

    Last Tuesday we had the heartbreaking task of burying my mum. As the cortege drove up the street you were in your garden and you stopped your work and took of your cap.

    Your one small action of kindness and respect meant a great deal to us all on such a sad day and is something that will always stay with me.

    In an age of disrespect you restored my faith in human nature.

    Thank you

    tigtag and family at *** **** ***.

    What do you think?

    Oh Tig, you have brought tears to my eyes too. I remember a little old man doing that on the way to my Gran's funeral too, and it meant such a lot to me - I wished I could have told him how much, but of course I had no idea who he was. Your letter is lovely. :A

    Yes, the camper has always been on the drive, but today we put it UP on the drive (turned it from a trailer into a :whistle: soft top caravan...:D). And yes, the broadband signal reaches the camper - cool eh?

    We've put the camper back down now, but I'm now in the holiday mood, and so not looking forward to work tomorrow night at all!
