@ V: that's a brilliant description of what it's like. I have been thinking about it on and off since I first read it. That's kind of what it's like with Dad. Made especially so by the fact that Dad and I mainly interacted at a distance. So, in a sense he still occupies that space, off in a different town, in an imagined place.

So true, so true. This is how it is for me too. I'll raise a glass to your Grandad, too, Sundae!
