Pixie, you become my 'Mersea mum' when I moved away from my own mum. You always offered me tea and something to eat when I came round to see Soph. It was a privilege to help edit your second book and to chat about Mersea history, folklore and superstitions. I can still hear your voice. I loved watching Strictly with you and Soph with the dogs on our laps. Please look after my Monty and Mimi until I get there. Much love ❤️
