We are pleased to welcome to our Memorial Garden, the introduction of 28 new fish in the new waterfall pond, along with an artificial heron which I hope will protect them from predators. Together with our ever growing family of doves, they will add peace and tranquillity to the garden.


Again I would like to remind you that the Christmas Memorial Garden service will be held on 7th December and starts at 7pm. Everyone is welcome and there will be plenty of seats, refreshments and mince pies as ever.


Whilst writing this update, I have two people in Iraq caring for the two security guards that were blown up in an explosion while protecting the staff in the British Embassy.
Our thoughts and prayers go to their families at this time.


I continue my campaign concerning bus lanes and respect for the dead. It would not do any harm if you would all be kind enough to write to the Mayor to support our case. So come on put pen to paper straight away or e-mail Valerie Shawcross on Valerie.Shawcross@london.gov.uk.


We will be taking delivery next week of our new ambulance - beautifully lined with a hydraulic lifting system and state of the art equipment.

We have just placed an order for the first new Daimlers to come on the market for many, many years. Having shelved our previous vehicle project for several years, the Daimlers will replace our old ones and we are very excited. They are due to arrive in May next year and will have all the usual Albins fittings.


A special hello to Valerie who I know enjoys reading the diary page every month. She's a lovely young lady who never fails to keep in touch with myself and Albins. I wish her every happiness as ever.


As President of the World Association, I look forward to inviting Funeral Directors from England and all over the world to our Convention in London, to be held in The Docklands 2 - 4 June 2006.


That’s all for now, take care and enjoy the Summer.

 

More news next time.

 


PS

Memorial Garden service on 7th December – all welcome. 

Look out for my new book ‘Strong Shoulders’ out in the shops in December. 

Also will be a paperback version of Final Departures full of weird and wonderful tales out next month.
