Eldest daughter Sian moved in to her flat on the campus of Liverpool University to-day amidst much weeping, wailing and gnashing of teeth... she was OK, that was just me and her mother. It doesn't seem to matter how much you prepare for it, it really does hit you when they go. The coming back home and the realisation that her room was empty..(and may never again be filled) that's when it hit me! I think I'll go and thumb through all those old photos one more time...
