I don’t usually post this sort of thing but I’m hurting and I need to let some of that hurt out. Sadly I lost my brother, Anthony, to cancer earlier this week. It has broken us and left us adrift. Cherish your loved ones, take care of each other and value every moment.

It’s a very sad day in the Kyme household. Our beloved house rabbit, Shakespeare, passed away peacefully in the night. He was 11 years old. We loved him dearly, and are heartbroken. He was such a massive part of our family. Rest now, my beautiful boy. x
