and all that - well it was Burns Night so where better to be than in Scotland? There were actually people reciting his poems in the pub we stayed in! I visited my father and stepmother who are unwell at the moment and it is so sad when the children start having to take over the parental role. The circle of life and all that. Lovely to see them though. My daughter came with me and spending two days without our partners and her daughter meant we had some special mum/daughter time too. Lovely to hear my grand daughter shouting 'lub you' down the phone to us!
I feel so touched when listeners share their lives with us too, and particularly so when something we have done on the show has meant that things have changed for them. The text from Mark on the show today saying that following talking on air with me he had decided to take some time off work to spend with his terminally ill father was particularly poignant when he sadly died weeks later. Mark is just glad he spent that special time with his dad.
