During my short visit of Cambridge this December I went as usual to Barbara's grave. It is the last time I will see the grave like this as the tombstone will  be replaced, probably in January. It was nice to see that even in this cold weather someone left some fresh flowers.

I also visited other interesting and worthwhile places like The Fitzwilliam museum and Waterstones bookstore. I had lunch at Charlie Chans restaurant.

Hi Rob, in June 2016 I left you a message regarding whether there are parking spaces available at the cemetery and you gave me a detailed answer.

I finally managed to make it this morning, on 13 Dec 2017. It's a 10-minute drive from where I stay. I stayed there for about 1.5 hours. We could have met each other had I arrived last week instead of this week!

Thanks for all the information you have provided here. It's not hard to find Barbara's grave at all and as you said, nice to see fresh flowers from fans last Friday.

Now that I have read your above post, it looks like the withered flowers I cleared was from you. :)

I cannot stress enough how content I am now that I have visited Barbara's grave. Please can you post pictures of Barbara's new tombstone once it is being placed?

Rob, I am deeply indebted to you for your help. May I wish you a very warm and wonderful X'mas.

Hi Rob, I am glad to let you know that I definitely found the peace when I visited Barbara's grave. It gave me the peace of mind. As 2017 comes to an end, visiting Barbara's grave makes my year and the fact that I placed the visit in December ended my year on a high note.

Rob. You are a man of sentiments. Not many ex-boyfriend will take the time to pen for so many years for a dear one that passed away so many years ago.

God bless......
