Dance me to the end of love.

Mum and Dad at the Christmas Dance, Mill Hill, London in 1948.  Dad is on leave from National Service.   Dad is 19 and Mum is 17 and they have been courting for a year.  They both loved ballroom dancing and were very, very good.  Married in 1952, they danced their way through a further 54 years together until we lost Mum in 2006. Dad stopped dancing only when he went into hospital last June.

Dance me to the end of love - Cohen

Dedicated to Mum and Dad on this first Valentines day without them both.
