My mum and her boyfriend are on holiday this week

The photo made me realise the importance of

• Friendship and love, whatever age we are
• Life is short we need to get out and see the world
• The moments we have we should cherish
• Photos help us remember and evoke emotions

When you meet a significant somebody when you are younger, you make a commitment, which for marriage is for life, which should be a long time

In your 70s and 80s, you don’t know what will happen with your health

That’s why she wants to get out and enjoy herself with her friends

Life is very precious 

I will finish on the point that because Alistair (her boyfriend) is 7 years younger than her, he’s technically a “toy boy”
