Its never the same again when someone this close leaves you but a new normality begins. Janie, my thoughts are with you and I would give you a hug but my arms aren't long enough so I will save it for next time. Keep smilin' girl.
Jonny, just be there mate, this is when those relationships really show and its going to take a while.
Take care both of you.
