The effects of gastroenteritis and consequently being summoned to the doctor for a series of blood tests this morning, resulted in my missing the annual Remembrance Day Service at St Martin’s Church.

Life has a wonderful way of juxtaposing happiness with sorrow, sometimes giving a confidence, but one still fused with a means of keeping us grounded.
