April 10 1912 – The Titanic disaster

I was thinking today, I do that sometimes, how events can change our lives, without us actually realising it.

I’ve never given it much though about the Titanic disaster, despite I was very priviledged to know Eva Hart who was a survivor from this ship but unfortunately she passed away in 1996, she did however, sign two books for my son. Eva Hart had a passion for French Bulldogs and she was a close friend of a friend, who also owned a French Bulldog.

Anyway, I suddenly remembered that my Mother’s parents who lived in Dublin, had planned to sail on the Titanic back in 1912 but changed their minds and 12 months later they had my Mother. Now had they actually taken that trip, they too could have perished and my Mother would never have been born!

Anybody else have similar thoughts or stories, yes, it is all a bit random.
