Funeral for a friend…Again

Another chum has bitten the dust. How sad. “What larks eh Pip?” Was our catchphrase over many a glass of wine over so many years although recently we fell out hard and hecame estranged. She had a full page Obit in the Times. Now that’s something. Soon I will book my train ticket to her funeral. It is to be held in Southeast. (Any excuse). I am having my Stewart Parvin funeral suit let out by a shocking 4 inches. Oh dear. A substantial weight gain since I wore it to a funeral 2 years ago and it was loose.
