A second wake for Matt took place. He’d lived in two cities during his life, Norwich and Bristol, so it was natural that friends in Bristol would want to see some of his ashes scattered there. I was able to bring some of the ashes back from the Norwich event. These were mixed with the soil which was used to plant a sapling cherry tree in his memory.

The rest of the month was a mish-mash of small DIY jobs. Nothing you’d find interesting.  Towards the end of the month, I grew tired of my ‘Old father Time’ appearance, so I chopped my facial furniture back to an acceptable level.
