Hi All, been putting this thread off as I haven't been able to face the reality and finality of it. Anyway, here it is.

I am going to get YANBU in flowers (possibly bright yellow - any other colour suggestions are welcome?) and take them along to the funeral of CTK. It would be lovely if there was lots of MN names to add to the chorus.

If you would like me to add your username then please post on this thread. (Some people have already pm'd me so they are already there - but can post below too of course if they wish). If you want to add a little message i am also happy to add that as well.

I shall take photos of the flowers and post them after the funeral. Cheers lovelies.

You're a ⭐️ MrsK x

I can't stop thinking about CTK and crying. It's just so bloody unfair. She was everything a person should be, why her?! Her DH, her DD...it's just so, so wrong.

Thanks again for doing this, we will all be with you tomorrow 🌹

Here is the card and message I wrote. I hope you all think it's okay. Had nightmares last night about not having any clothes to wear and car breaking down and missing trains.

My dad has kindly offered to drive me as I'm not really okay to drive today. Dc were up all night and I only got a few broken hours sleep.

I'm dreading this. Please think lovely thoughts of ctk today and make me strong.
