    So today 35.6% of today’s grades in England are downgraded😳 @RuthDavidsonMSP let’s hear your reaction? The Tories failing over a third of England’s students. Who should resign?

    The other day I saw the saddest person I have ever seen. I then realised it was my reflection. The loss of my wonderful wife, Susie, has changed me irreversibly. This life is pointless without her. #grief every high is followed by the deepest low.

    The witch hunt against Margaret Ferrier is shocking. What kind of society is this? Attacks from all sides. She is far from the only politician/person to break covid rules. No surprise the media have blown this into a feeding frenzy. I am concerned for her health. It has to stop

    I woke today and realised that all the plans, hopes and dreams that we made together are gone. I was the luckiest man in the world to have shared it with my Susie. x

    Susie's day went well. I did spend most of the day as a wreck. The undertakers were MacGregor's of Coatbridge. They did my Susie proud. She had a piper pipe her out the street. The ceremony was all about my beautiful Susie and lots of friends and family came to say farewell

    Tomorrow is Susie's send-off. I hope I do her proud. I'm sure I will break down a few times, but I will get back up for Susie. I didn't even realise today was St. valentines Day. It's probably just as well. It would have just added to the pain. #IloveUs

    This grief has the better of me. I’m on the ropes. Everything has changed. I’m not the man I used to be. I realise that it’s early days but I’m finding it difficult to see a future for me now my Susie has passed. I’m just treading water until better days.

    This grief isn’t getting any easier. Absolutely everything has changed. I can’t think, I can’t breathe, I can’t function as I used to. Every minute seems like an hour. Everything I do is forgotten almost instantly. We both lost our lives the day Susie passed.
