FAREWELL MY FRIEND


Janet

Recommended Posts

I suppose all good things have to come to an end sometime...today I had the sad task of bidding farewell to an old and faithful friend, one who has been my constant companion since I took up angling a few short years ago. There were many tears shed today, lots of memories and fond recollections of good times shared, but in the end there was nothing that could be done...

 

I am absolutely gutted...my trips to the lake will never be the same without my stalwart friend who was always there for me through thin and thick... I really don't know how I can carry on without the constant help and support...

 

I blame myself...if only I'd been more careful, more attentive...more receptive...

 

Yes, I accidentally put my pair of lucky fishing knickers through a boil wash....

 

The fetching lace trim and pastel pink rosebuds were already faded beyond recognition, but still I was given support and comfort when I was in need...now that help is no more....

 

If anyone needs a marquee for a special event, please PM me!
