I think one of the most incredible parts of my job is that my days are never the same and even after over 3 years I am still having firsts all the time.

Yesterday was my first funeral to involve some donkeys and I have to say I hope we can get that one trending, I think donkeys are needed at every funeral now, they were so well behaved and gentle at Blackburn with Darwen Cemeteries & Crematorium pleasington site.

The Undertaker Mum is the most incredible person who at this time of year is run ragged making sure Christmas is taken care of for so many people in Preston.

Today I dropped off two lots of essentials to help the food bank side of operations. Please follow the page and see if you can help. if you are short on time to actually get to Preston and drop off this week then there are ways of chipping in cash to help plug any donation gaps

I am always in awe of my funeral industry colleagues and sometimes they are equine as well as human. Yesterday I knew I was working with the team at Elegant Carriages who are a wonderful group of humans so I took the good camera with me to take some pics , it was lovely to see Tom and Norman in lilac yesterday for a wonderful young lady

Having just invested in a new camera as a family I'm kicking myself for not having bought it along today to capture the sun on these leaves with the moody sky behind at West Lancashire Cemetery and Crematorium this morning, my phone camera simply doesn't cut it
