Death is a funny old thing. On one hand it’s intriguing and interesting, like the visit to Highgate cemetery. On the other hand, it’s confusing, painful and downright horrible. Unfortunately I am on the other hand right now. I found out my mum died last week, and it’s knocked me for six. Not in the usual, shit I miss her kind if way. I hadn’t seen or spoken to her for years. My relationship with my mum was complicated, too complicated to go into here. The next few weeks are going to be tough, but, as is always said (and meant) in these situations, I have some amazing supportive family and friends around me.
