Hey Berk,

I really missed you today, went up Nan's with immy and we went to the park, Tracey Harper and Nan came to it was really nice. Nan said about how you always used to pretend to let me kick you on the swings, and just got me remembering a lot of the times we had when I was little, Nan had fun I think but she really misses you, but she has a lot of people around her who are looking after her for you. And I'm doing my part to, I'm still really trying to make up for the few months I didn't see you before you left us, and I regret that every day and it's a horrible feeling but I can't change the past, I'll just make sure I'm better in the future.

I miss you, seems to be more and more frequent.

I'll check in again soon.

Love you xx

Hi Berk,

been thinking about you a lot the past few weeks, still find it hard to think about you without getting upset. I miss you. i think more than anything i regret that i didn't see you the last few months, that hurts - a lot. There isn't a moment that passes where i don't regret not calling up, but im making alot more effort now, i make sure i go and see nan alot more and i know it doesnt make up for it but im trying. every night before bed i look at my little photo album with pictures of me & you, and i put the heartbeat theme as my alarm. Im really sad, i hide it well though so nobody really knows it and i miss you. ill keep dropping in on here. Love you. hope you are doing okay up there.

shithead xx

So sad such a lovely and honest person, which is very rare these days. Very happy memories of 'The Perway yard', and 'The Pierhead', on Barry docks. RIP.
