Why I want to be more like Ian

My best friend died last month. Now I’m not sharing that with you to elicit sympathy, dear reader, but more as a form of therapy, I guess. When folk die, the go to is to list their apparent ‘achievements’ but I’m not going to tread that path as there’s no one to impress, as those who knew Ian knew Ian, and listing life’s successes does little but attempt to showboat to others what a great chap or chapess the departed was.
