Hi Dad, Sorry for late reply (6:20 Pm Mon 11th Jan 2016) Thanks for the emails. Love Louise x
P.S. I heard the sad news about Bowie just after 7am. Shed some tears. A little late leaving for work so I could listen to all of Life on Mars being played on (radio) 6 music.
Hi Louise, Thanks for that, Dawn told me at about 7:10am, sad news & it brings back a lot of memories. The first one was when Life on Mars was in the charts July 1973. I was hoeing swedes in a field at W------ farm (Because the farm machine could only weed between the rows and not between the plants) while listening to it on the radio tied to my mates belt. The other was my take on "Sorrow", I recorded it in about 1986, it must still be here somewhere, a duet with David. And towards the end of the recording I heard your mother past the front room door, so at the end I said “this one is for you Lizzie” So indeed it’s very sad for me.
Love
Dad
P.S. I hope you can make my birthday, Ann can't make it till about 7Pm she's got work on Sat.
