Hi Everybody,
Today is a very sad one for me as this would have been Griffs 72 birthday.
And the first one we have had since he died last November
This is the wonderful and funny gentleman that I was married to, with Ruby, the Cocker Spaniel that he adored.
He gave her the name and he loved her so much.
This photograph was taken last year when we went on holiday with Vickie and of course both dogs.
Ruby went swimming in this lake and Griff went "Water Skiing" on a stone at the side of water.
It was often hard to get photos of Griff as he was the one that did all the pictures and videos wherever we went.
Here he is, with Ruby waiting patiently, as he cut up a big bone into smaller pieces for her to gnaw on. And this one kept her busy for hours.
Griff took her walking every morning at 9.45am, while I got some work done, and she looked for him for days when he was no longer there.
How can you explain to a little dog that her human is not coming back anymore.
Now she follows me everywhere making sure that I don't leave her as well, and she has been a blessing to me.
So tonight Griffs daughters and my daughters with their husbands & partners, grand children and myself are all going out for a meal to celebrate his birthday.
And have a drink to remember the kind and generous person that he was and who never knew how to say "No" to anybody
We ALL love you and miss you very much Griff
Hugs xx
