That is a beautiful article, Amanda. Hats off to your Nan - it is an amazing journey finding out what that old person sitting in the comfy chair got up to when she was young and spirited.
I am with you on the Apple sandwiches though ..

Lovely article. 👏👏
I've done a charity ride near Oswestry three times in the past few years. First two editions were eyeballs out, 2 hour blasts. The third time I rode with some new-ish MTBers and had the time to get my photo taken for the local paper, fix a puncture with someone struggling and met the Guinness world record holder for the largest collection of ear trumpets. That was by far my favourite ride of the three and it took twice as long to complete. I heartily embrace the concept of a slow ride and now it has a moniker - Nanduro. Excellent.

Lovely to see the photo at the door of the Nelson ILP Clarion House. The house is open for tea and coffee and sweets and crisps on Sundays.
Join us for Clarion Sunday on 12 June 2022. It will be an excellent day out: Fellowship is Life.

That was a moving read, comforting in a way. The part about losing someone to dementia was especially poignant having seen my wife lose both her parents that way. One to bookmark for another read whenever I need to reset on a grumpy day.

Yup, like those before me I came down to the comments to say what a cracking article.

We should all take time for a Nanduro of some sorts this year.

nantastic – than you for sharing amanda. i find a decent cheddar transforms an apple sandwich significantly.

@simmo - change the apple for apple chutney, add the Cheddar and you've got a proper sandwich.
Great article Amanda. To quote Joni Mitchell "... you don't know what you've got till its gone ..."
