Oh Susan, it must be hard for you, I remember your post of 4 years ago and reading it in Berlin when we were on holiday. You must miss David terribly and I'm sure it doesn't feel like 4 years at all. That's a super photo you've shared with us. How lovely, taking your own flowers over to visit him, I bet you have memories of him running about helping you in the allotment and probably getting bored there too!

Love your today's card, and that super LOTV, hope you enjoy London and it's not too hot! Take care, and sending you a hug, Jx

A lovely post Susan and so nice to see a photo of David. Knowing your love of gardening I think the London trip is a very fitting way to spend such a difficult day.

Your Allsorts card is beautiful and perfect for the theme.

Sending you cyber hugs.
