John 10th July 2022

Hello Dot Well I’ve got quite a bit to catch up with you about. I had a lovely 60th birthday, the party on the Saturday down at the Slug & Lettuce was great. Your Debra & Mark, Alan & Bethany and Michael, Clare and Megan were all there. It was great to see them all and Clare’s Mam also came. There was loads there from about 3-7:30 then we went to the Big Jug before going back to the Stags. On the Sunday all my family went to the Stags for our dinner. We had a great day, my cousin Christine came and also Bagser, Christine, Bobby Jeanette, Paul, Lynne, Mathew, Phil and Jacqueline. I got loads of nice presents and also a travel voucher off our Mary, Anne and Michael so I am now going to have to book a holiday for myself, life is so hard haha. So I have finally reached my 60th the only sad thing is that you were not with me to share it with. The week before your Martin & Charlotte and Louise came up to see me. It was great to see them and we went to the Stags Head again for our dinner along with our Mary and Kevin. We all had a lovely time and it was great to catch up with them all again. The week before that I went to Newcastle on the Friday and Saturday stopping in the Station hotel with Paul Robson, Jeff & Gavin from Tow Law. We went to the races on the Saturday and I had four winners. So I have had quite a few rough weekends lately and I was down the Big Meeting yesterday. We are also going to go to Newcastle Races on the 23rd for Paul Scurf’s Birthday. Well Pet I think that’s about all the gossip up to date, no real scandals to tell you about, just to say that I think of you everyday and miss you with all my heart forever and ever you’re loving husband John xxxxx❤️❤️❤️
