Memories to last forever

Hi Dad,

I've had a lovely weekend away with the MR.  We travelled to North Wales, and it brought back such happy memories. Remember the year me and you caught a bus to Rhyl?  It absolutely poured down and for some random reason Owen Money was doing a tour of wales for BBC and was stood on Rhyl Sea Front, wind blowing, rain pouring, all in the name of entertainment.  We laughed so much that day, about the most stupid of things. We went to sea world and spent hours enjoying being surrounded  by water and yet we stayed dry.

And so this was only the second time I had headed to the north of the country and seeing as the only real way to get there is via the mountains and valleys, we took our time and stocked up on coffee and off we went.  The scenery was breath taking but that wasn't the most exciting part.

We stayed at Pentre Mawr Country House, with our own private hot tub. After dinner we went back to our lodge and jumped in the 40 degree water.  It was 6 degree's outside and 40 under the water but with a view like this,

 nobody was thinking about the cold.  I sat in the bubbles with the MR looking up at the stars and working out how you get to where you are. Seeing as we technically can't put our finger on where you are it would be difficult to work that out, but that's not the point!  It got me thinking about how I would love to visit you, get you to meet me at the pearly gates and just reassure me that you're having a wonderful time.  I've made my "wish" and will patiently wait to see you again.

So I have stored one more memory, the first major memory I have had without you. I have never seen such a magnificent sky on such an amazing night. The universe really is breathtaking.

Let me know you're happy Dad, cos it may help me to get on without you. It's been three weeks today since you left us and it doesn't feel any better, maybe it never will.  I miss you, wherever you are up there above the stars x
