I remember not long after my Mum died we took my Dad on holiday with us. I took a few cassettes along - one of which was a Judy Garland compilation.

We were all sat there in this caravan/chalet thing in St Ives and Have yourself a Merry Little Christmas came on cassette player. That line came up, '...one day soon we all will be together, if the fates allow'.

We were all misssing my Mother so much, and she would so loved to have been with us - that the line just gripped us all for a moment and we were literally frozen with emotion.

I said, Good singer, eh?

And my Dad said, the best!

One of the few times we agreed about anything.
