Mothers Day

Post by Pirtek »

I don't mean to sound morbid with this post, but today is a sad day for me as I lost my Mum last October to cancer (on the day the track Never was released as a free download)

Whenever there were any new Orbital releases out I always used to put them on when my Mum came to see us. She used to really like Orbital and as much as I like the track Never, it always makes me feel sad as she'll "Never" get to here it or any of the new album. As time goes on it gets easier but the pain will always be there.

Please take a few minutes of your time to read the link below please.

Slugs! HE created slugs! They can't hear. They can't speak. They can't operate machinery. Are we not in the hands of a lunatic?

Sorry to hear about your loss. It's difficult losing anyone close but in this way must have made it even harder for you. Sounds like she was a great mom with perfect music taste as well.





ps.It's quite ironic that this week, i'm in a different office because the whole building is being double checked for any traces of asbestos.

Thanks Steve and Nightfloat. Some days are difficult. I just think to myself that at least now she's not in pain anymore.

It's frightening to think that this awful substaince could be anywhere.
