I have been thinking a lot about the impact that music has made on my life. Romanic moments when you danced with your loved one , sat and listened to a song together, been in a crowd when a choir sang a particular song . The piece of music that the Organist played for your wedding. Your choice .. your favourite song that meant something to you and your sweetheart.
During WW2, my grandmother used to take me to every official event that was held to honour our fighting servicemen and women. That is what grandmothers did and I loved the excitement of a day out and the chance to see a dive bomber in flight and a day to see a Vultee Vengeance.

When I was a little girl, we wanted to buy a teddy bear. Long before the days of cheap Chinese imports, you could buy a handmade teddy from the local looney bin. Or at least, that is what we called them when we were little kids. Redhead of course didn't call them that. She called them " special hospitals.
