Blog post #54 - Memory Lane - Goodbye Old Friend!

Some will have noticed I have been noticeably unnoticeable for a few weeks now!🥴
Been fully occupied on this trip of trips. Four countries, four currencies, three time zones and ultimately 12 different beds in four and a half weeks!

​More of that I guess.....



Meantime, my trusty little red friend of countless air miles over ten years, has spat the dummy with three of its four wheels succumbing to the ravages of time over New Year.
With it I went backwards and forwards pretty much twice a year for a decade; crossing the globe to be with my little old lovelies as they struggled into their 90s, Dad caring for our ailing Mum for about five of those and then struggling with the reality of needing care for her and ultimately himself. That’s what did him in in the end. He literally worried himself to death!
Baby boomers will of course recognise the story of the pointy end.

And so, my little red friend, which was a cheapie BTW, has served me more than well. Someone with a mathematical brain might be able to come up with a number from all those above.
Where’s Phil DeLosa when I need him? 🤣
I hope the grand total correlates to the love in my heart. I suspect it will be found wanting.
Meanwhile, my smart new grey one sporting a red trim (score!!) I hope will see me through to my remaining globe trotting days.
Amazing adventures have heralded this new and unprecedented chapter. Gratitude and humility in spades to be seeing the possibilities of what may come.
Love to all for 2024 and whatever comes your way. Kxx
