Dear Blogger friends. Thank you for the wonderful wishes from you all.
The one person who always shared my birthday week, was Grant, now gone these past three years and three months.
Today, had he lived, he would have been 70.
I remember his 60th : we were living in Kenya, in the Great Rift Valley. If you click on this link here, you will see the great montage I created for Grant. Below is just one of the interesting images from that blog post.

When we retired to the Central Drakensberg, Grant was involved in the weekly Parkrun; he had a building project which was a week off completion when he passed away and he hiked in the mountains with friends.

May you be at rest now, dear Grant

That's the thing with grief: specific dates bring it all back.
