when i was 14 years old in 1968 my grandfather lay dying and he called out for miriam his wife but she had died many years eailier from a fall while cleaning windows. my grandfather was called jim. he was a miner for many years. on the day of my grandfather's funeral i was pouring out a cup of tea for a lady whom i thought was a friend, and my mother asked me, what are you doing sylvia? and i told her i was giving the lady in the corner a cup of tea because no one seemed to be giving her one. my mother said there is no one there, but i described her to my mam and she went white and she showed me a photo later in the day and i told her that was the lady. she said that is my mother and she had died over thirty years ago. but i swore i saw her i described her brooch that she had on her hat and her flowered dress.
