Today was Nan’s funeral service and burial.

It was all a bit od and not becasue Nan was being farwewelled but odd becasue of my crazy family and all the rifts and dramas and deep stuff. All a bit weird for me and i’ve been part of it for 25 years. but today was doubly weird.

Oh well.

The service was a catholic mass casue my Nan was a catholic, it was nice. I know nan would have liked it and the crazy polish priest was cool.

The burial was strange, Nan got buried on top of her husband which was nice and was what she wanted. but again there was this strange family stuff going on.

I have to say i’m glad i’m not the solicitor that has to sort all the remaining stuff out. He sure will be earning his wage.

And on the emotional side, still no tears. I think like i sad before i’d already said goodbye to Nan so today was just a bit of a formality.

We had a pretty full on weekend of work in Orange. Saturday was spent getting 96 people through a cave in one piece.

Then saturday evening / night it was my job to be the MC. It was probably the hardest MC gig i’ve had. It was impossible to get everyone quiet. And i’m not very good at being angry and if i was good at being angry it probably wouldnt have been all that helpful. It was impossible then we had a very loud heavy metal band come play and they where so friggen loud my ears where ringing for quite some time after.

When the band finished it was my task to try and get everyone sitting down and quiet so we could have someone come and give a bit of a talk.

boy oh boy……..

then after a big day of draining work i had to sleep in a room with 20 other people who i swear all had the gift of snoring.
