A father's message for his daughters

It's a cool overcast morning, I am at the Loft and will be seeing Dad a little later.

A good time to open Dad's Croxley Notebook on the bookshelf.

He started to journal on the 30 August 2003 and wrote on the inside hardcover;
'I think I would put these pages to some use, by recording my thoughts'.

He means for the journal to be read, his first entry is a message to us all;
'I do love you all although not expressing it verbally! It's my upbringing - in my early years not much of that talk'.

We know that about Dad and respect that it is what it is.

He writes that he is busy, playing bridge, travelling, he has been to Australia, Johannesburg and Kloof, 'what a pleasure seeing you all from time to time'.

He then jots down some thoughts on each of us which I have posted here.

"All very talented and all make my life worth living and give me lots of pleasure."

Thank you Dad from Sharon, Inel and Doreen.

We love you too.
