So pleased your Market Rasen gathering went well, it was a lovely gesture, and also good that you met even more of Jane's friends, who hopefully over time will become yours and be there for you in the future.

We too would have loved to plant a tree as a tribute to Jane as Shell is doing, and a flowering plum tree is so apt, but having planted a tree for each of the grandchildren on their birth (not knowing there would be 8 of them), we have run out of space in our not so large garden.  However, whatever we choose, it will need to be in the 'outdoors', as using your words, 'Jane was an outdoors type of girl'.  x
