Farewell old friend

While London slept, my family farewelled an old friend - our first cat 'Sophie' passed away. Sophie came to us to fill a void in Fraser's world - the time from 8.45 till 3.30 when New Gisborne Primary School in his eyes, kept his big sister hostage! One particularly bad day at swimming lessons he bubbled away in the water, only to reach the side and cry "I want Emi", I survived these lessons by reading the local paper and this day one add jumped out of the page at me "kittens free to a good home" - a solution to Fraser's despair - and so began a friendship that lasted him from infancy to manhood. Sleeping on 'duck', a stuffed toy from Fraser's first Easter or in the crook of his arm, Sophie was a constant. So farewell old girl, you will be missed xxxx
