I should say at the outset that I’m not anybody special or out of the ordinary in many ways. I have a wonderful wife and three great children.

It’s strange how in life it is often the most precious things that we take for granted. Reflecting back I realise that for much of the time I took Mum for granted. She looked after us as a family – the meals were always there, the washing was always done, etc. In many ways you could say that there was nothing special about Mum – she wasn’t famous, she hadn’t written a book, she wasn’t a well-known musician although she could play the piano quite adequately, but in another sense she was very special. She was always there for us. Even after we left home. She was always there. I have wondered why I wasn’t particularly aware of that at the time? I think it was because … she was always there for us! |
