Just back from laying my flowers for Sarah in London.

Coming up the escalator and out of Sloane Square tube I reflected that it didn't feel like a year since my last visit. On the platform on the corner of the theatre steps two young women were idly sitting. There was a play in progress, so the lights were on in reception and two front of house people were behind the table, but I didn't see if they noticed me. Stood in silence remembering the times I'd spent with her for a little while.

Back in Portsmouth at 11.15pm, the busker who sits at the top of the ramp down to the Gosport ferry was playing guitar accompaniment for three young women who were raucously singing "We'll be coming off the ferry when we come". Then when he sang Nothing At All and Wonderwall they joined in at full volume, causing a guy on the ramp to abandon his mobile conversation for the sheer volume. They gave us another rendition of "We'll be coming off the ferry" on the boat.

Goodnight my sweet princess *x*

Lovely evocative post. Gentle and affectionate. Fitting to someone you held dear. I lost someone I adored back in 2002. His name was James. I sometimes dream about going up to Yorkshire to visit his grave again - I haven't managed to go since the funeral. It's not a journey I can do alone.

I don't think I've ever left you a comment, have I?

I have to admit I was quite surprised when you added me as a friend. I hadn't had a proper person add me for several years so I was quite pleased.

I can be a bit up and down in moods, but since moving in with my bf Matthew in 2009, I seem to have calmed down a lot and tend to keep a reasonable balance in my moods, so apologies if it gets on your nerves. I am quite open about how I'm feeling in my journal. This is the place where I express myself most honestly, where I know I can say exactly what's on my mind and I will get sympathetic responses. Unlike the dreaded F*cebook.

Anyway. I'm glad you added me. I hope you enjoy the ride.

I hope you get the chance to make the trip one day, totally understand how you feel.

I found turquoise_floyd searching for Ipswich Town fans, noticed we had several interests in common and found both your journals very interesting reading. I have no problem with you expressing your feelings fully on here, that's what diaries are for and I'm no stranger to dark moods myself. Like you I've been getting them less often since 2009; sadly not thanks to finding love, but at least it was because of escaping a job that really got me down.

Thanks for adding me and reading too *x*

I wonder if these were the same two women I caught urinating on the ramp on Saturday long ago? I was in the RNR then.
