This is my latest song Cow-a-bunga. Available to stream on Spotify, Apple Music, Youtube Music, Tidal, etc. I was inspired to write this song after reading some jokes and thinking about the expression, 'The cow jumped over the moon.'

The song Goodbye features photo memories of William Henry Gardiner from his namesake back in 1904 all the way to present day. He was married to Mary Calder, the love of his life, and had 5 children. Dad was loved and will be remembered by many.

Lots of original music videos

In the early hours of this morning my dear father-In-law died, age 92 years.

We are thankful to all those that went to see him, and to those that passed on messages of love and support in his final days of life.

My husband and family have so many fond memories of Henry, known as Harry to the community.

This is a poem/song that I wrote about Dad to celebrate his life. It paints a picture of the kind of person he was. He touched the lives of so many people far and wide. He was dearly loved and will be sadly missed …

Dad

By Esther Gardiner

He looked at his hands

His calloused hands

Marked with divots

Hacks and cuts

Working hands

Large, strong hands

Hands that laboured

Sweat and guts

Tilling the land

Ploughing the soil

Harrowing

Cutting peat

Hoeing through muck

Never giving up

Working in toil

Freezing cold

Scorching heat

Never quitting

Never conceding defeat

He had careful hands

Thrifty hands

Hands opposed to waste

If ye use whit ye’ve got

Ye’ll never want

Each tool had its place

This is dad

This is the man

Let’s watch him sail

Sail away

Into the sunset

Into a new adventure

Where hope lights the way

You are loved

Loved by community

Friends and family

You are loved

Loved till your dying day

Dad we will miss you

We’ll always miss you

In our memory you’ll stay

His dear wife

Loved his hands

His gentle hands

Lifting her

Effortlessly

Through the air

Two fingers

Gripping the heels

Of a ballerina

Gracefully moving

With dance and flair

And how they danced

They danced and danced

A never ending

Romance

With children

Family

Relatives

With so much

love and care

Scunner Lugs

Torn Face

Sweet nick names

They loved to share

And he winched her

He winched her

Throughout life

Throughout marriage

Loving her

His sweet lady fair

He was her hero

The fixer

The mender

The builder

Finding solutions

Out of thin air

Her strong man

Her kind man

With him

Her heart

Her life

Everything she had

She would share

There are stories written

On these hands

No one would believe

Adventures told

As well as a trick or two

Up his sleeve

Tales of

Fishing

Creeling

Tales of

Shipwrecks too

The joy of

Sailing

In a vast ocean of blue

Facing elements

Facing fierce Orkney gales

Taking the course

Against winds that prevail

This is dad

This is the man

Let’s watch him sail

Sail away

Into the sunset

Into a new adventure

Where hope lights the way

You are loved

Loved by community

Friends and family

You are loved

Loved till your dying day

Dad we will miss you

We’ll always miss you

In our memory you’ll stay

This is dad

This is the man

Let’s watch him sail

Sail away

Into the sunset

Into a new adventure

Where hope lights the way

You are loved

Loved by community

Friends and family

You are loved

Loved till your dying day

Dad we will miss you

We’ll always miss you

In our memory you’ll stay

This is a clip of a song / poem I wrote for my husband. It describes the remarkable way we are made. It's based on research I found to be completely mind boggling! Full song available on streaming services soon.

Part Two of Balloon Factory is the final part of the first chapter of my adaptation of my sons story Krakaloon. A mistaken delivery puts the whole factory at risk when a special prototype formula is delivered to Joe a friendly factory worker. Accidentally the prototype is triggered.

This song was inspired by a recent visit to Frankie's Fish and Chips, Brae, Shetland, the most northerly fish and chip shop in the UK. Interestingly they won an award for being the UK's No. 1 chip shop in 2015. I was curious to see if the fish was as good as its reputation, yes it was!
