Messymascot's faith in humanity and ginger safe haven

[Charlie Sweet]

My dad sadly passed away in his sleep yesterday morning aged 87.
He took me to my first Everton game when I was seven despite him supporting Leeds where he came from.
He was a good man who was always there for anyone in need.
It then took me 8 hours to travel down to Merseyside due to the M6 closure.
Tried to get something upbeat on the radio to cheer myself up but it was all solemn stuff due to the Queen's passing
It was fair to say it wasn't a good day all round.

Sincere condolences. However old and however great a life they left, and all the love that was given, its a terrible loss. Having experienced similar not long ago I'd advise as much time off as you can manage. I found the loss kept (and keeps) hitting me and random times. All the best.

I lost my own dad, a lifelong blue, two weeks ago. He had a 50% strike rate, losing my brother to the dark side courtesy of his own redshite brother ?.
We argued many, many times over the years, and on one occasion to my eternal regret traded serious blows.
But like your dad, he was a good man, loved by many and I'll miss him terribly. Our numerous squabbles suddenly seem so pointless and unnecessary.

So very sorry to read of your Dad’s passing. There is no finer epitaph. I hope you can find comfort in his long life well lived.

As long as you don't start posting any GIFs Anj. One GIF Queen is already one too many (mention no names).

Sad to read that you lost your Dad recently. Try not to dwell on your differences and focus on the good times and take comfort in the fact that he “ was a good man, loved by many”, I’m sure he was.

You are able to dock in Mykonos ! We always had to take a tender , that must be new . Have a great time !

Docked here last time we came which must be 6/7 years ago. There are 2 other cruise ships tendering today though. Very busy.

Thank you Fred x

How are you holding up mate?

Sorry for your loss mate, my family have very recently suffered a bereavement of a much loved family member and I know how difficult and sad a time you must be going through

Another mega hot one today. Delos wasn't that great tbh. Not as historic ruins go but I'll post a couple of pics for H anyway. Mykonos us great though. Spent an hour in the town having a few beers and people watching. Just about to sleep it off. Enjoy the rest of the weekend everyone.
