    Kind of been on the horizon since the turn of the year but was very quick in the end. I went up on the day it became apparent and once I got there he threw the towel in, was a matter of hours after that.
    At home.

    Was a bit detached and matter of fact about it at the time, was not straightforward to compute at all.
    The week after wasn't that bad, last week was utter ****e from the minute I woke up on Monday morning to when I got home on Wednesday night and turned my work phone off. Yesterday wasn't anywhere near as bad as I imagined it would be and this morning was like a big ****ing black cloud had lifted. Well, that was yesterday afternoon really.

    It’s a monkey thing. Like a support group for angry primates.

    The Slovakian football team were in the same hotel as me last night, should have done the fire alarm at 3am.

    I know the feeling.

    My mum died suddenly last year. Ok, she was getting on and I suppose you can’t be entirely surprised.

    It’s still a hammer blow to the gut when it happens though. My brother and I had to go through her flat and sort out all her belongings. Not easy to do!

    Emptying my mum's house was one of the most heart breaking things I have ever had to do ... the memories were like knives to the soul ... but it was also cathartic in many ways
