Wife's just come back from an afternoon with some friends, one of them a close neighbour, who advised that some neighbours who we haven't spoken to for a while have just got married. Sounded like good news, as they have a 16-year old son and we thought it was to make him happy. Turns out, the father's got advanced cancer and has about 8 months to live, so the marriage is to 'tie up any loose ends'. No wonder we haven't seen them recently.
Life, eh?
