The diary, memories, thoughts, actions and intentions of John May MBE, someone committed to Family, Talking Newspapers and Lions Clubs International. Friday, 31 July 2015. Thursday 30th July 2015. When you have house guests you can't just go about your usual day, except a little bit if it's Thursday. Pauline went to town for breakfast. Anything in the food cupboards that could remotely be connected to breakfast was piled onto the dining table. Any hotel would have been proud of the offering. Peter was ea...

The diary, memories, thoughts, actions and intentions of John May MBE, someone committed to Family, Talking Newspapers and Lions Clubs International. Saturday, 1 August 2015. Gil Whale - Friday 31st July 2015. Today was all about Gilbert Ronald Whale, a man for whom I had the highest regard. He was the most knowledgable person I knew, never ever forgot a friend, and I never heard an unkind utterance from his lips. I took the Talking News to the Sorting Office. Then we all had breakfast. My definition of ...

From Aaardvark to Armadillo - Saturday 8th August 2015. I cooked again tonight and my molly coddling is paying off because Pauline is beginning to look less tired and gaunt. The holiday that is in the offing can't come soon enough. I asked for a martini but they gave me a single. There's no kick in a martinus. Omaha Beach landings rem...

The diary, memories, thoughts, actions and intentions of John May MBE, someone committed to Family, Talking Newspapers and Lions Clubs International. Saturday, 8 August 2015. A home at last - Friday 7th August 2015. I was craving a day of normality, if not domesticity. The weather was kind at times and it would have been nice to spend the whole day outside, but there was a job to do first. Pauline also needed normality so Gill came and took her off to Boundary Mill for half a day. I took a load to th...

The diary, memories, thoughts, actions and intentions of John May MBE, someone committed to Family, Talking Newspapers and Lions Clubs International. Monday, 10 August 2015. General Sherman - Sunday 9th August 2015. If every day was like today - I don't know if I'd be delighted or bored. For today, however, I was muchly pleased. We still can't get above 23 degrees Celsius and the sun is rarely with us for more than an hour at a time, but it didn't rain and we were outside most of the day. When I was youn...

Inventors required - Tuesday 4th August 2015. I had a lot to do today, firing off letters and cheques for the Lions and the Talking News.

The diary, memories, thoughts, actions and intentions of John May MBE, someone committed to Family, Talking Newspapers and Lions Clubs International. Monday, 31 August 2015. The lull - Sunday 30th August 2015. A walk at Delettes. Arromanches les Bains sunset. Sunday, 30 August 2015. Traffic - Saturday 29th August 2015. The journey seemed over before it had started. We got on to the M20 and it was moving. That was a novel experience for us. However, when we got to the Dartford Crossing it all ...The next ...
