Following on from my most recent remembrance. I was thinking about a piece a priest, Hugh Lavery wrote about holidays and people sending cards saying wish you were here to friends and colleagues, hiding the fact that they genuinely wished it because they didn't know what to do without friends and work mates around. I don't know whether that's true or not , but how he ended the piece resonated with me. 'It's not rest we need, its recreation, to play again with the abandon of children.'
