I must admit receiving a letter from my dear old Mum during my tour and wondering If something drastically bad had happened as she never wrote to me normally... opening it, it read..

Dear Son,

Are you still alive?

Love Mum



That was it... nothing else lol, ohhh I wish I’d kept it. The rest of the family couldn’t believe it... still to be fair I hadn’t called her in over a year.. 😬🤭

At one point, my Mum actually included a stamped, addressed envelope in one of her letters to me.
