It seems to me that it's the parents who seem to wander off to warmer climes these days, leaving the children behind.

When I left England, almost six years ago, both my children had happy marriages and I felt secure with that. Secure enough to leave them all.

Unfortunately, my daughter is now on her own and at times I do feel that I should be back there helping her. Thankfully, she's a survivor and coping so happen it's for the best in the end.

When we are all together again, it's wonderful.
