that policeman gave me such a fright that I lost my footing on the wheelbarrow, toppled over and Jim fell onto the compost heap. Yes, I know. He said he'd been watching me for some time. Yes, and I wouldn't have minded if they'd nabbed me outside the block of flats. But considerably, they let me struggle with him all the way through the back lanes. And then through the allotment where, I might add, I had to find a spade and then drag him and the wheelbarrow across all Johnson's field. It's not funny that bull is a nightmare. So to sneak around him on, keeping an eye out for Carol Pass and Vessels. Yeah, you can laugh. And just when I think is a little plain sailing, good old PC Eagle eyes jumps out from behind a memorial and wants to know what I'm doing. What did it look like? Sorry, officer. I'm just taking my dead husband out for an evening stroll. He always loved walking through the fields at night. Andi is pure coincidence that I've willed him for what feels like bloody miles to the edge of the overhang between the field in the graveyard and yes, I know I was lucky to get away with it, the psychologist said. I was suffering from delayed shock and grief on that. It was natural for woman on our own to worry about funeral expenses. After all, I am a grieving widow.
