It is F.A.I. and my dear granny, I am thinking it could be their wedding photograph or at very least an engagement one.

About Me
- LT
- About me? I have always had a busy demanding job alongside running a house and raising a child (oh and 2 cats and a dog) finally I have job where I do less hours (ok less money too but realise it is time to take stock.... work life balance et al) Now I have time to do the things I enjoy and quite frankly I am loving it. One of the things I had promised to do was this, my grandad's life. FAI is special to me and this diarised method of publishing allows me delve, discover and delight in all the information I have amassed over the years but piece meal and at my pace. If nobody except my family read it then that is fine because it is not about hoping to achieve awards and a wider blog audience, it is about me sharing whilst celebrating his life and what he was about :-)
