In 1978 I sat on a bus just a few feet behind my father... but I didn't know it was him.
That moment stayed.
Because it quietly asked a question that would shape everything that followed:
What does it really mean to be a father?
In late 1981, two teenagers met in a school corridor.
They shared a birthday.
They didn't know they were choosing a lifetime.
From council houses to cup finals, from missed matches to midnight promises, Still Fate. Still Us. follows one man's quiet decision to become the father he never had - and the husband who stayed.
There are no dramatic betrayals.
No sweeping tragedies.
Just real life.
A honeymoon in Majorca.
Three children, two years between each of them.
Football pitches, school runs, and long journeys home.
Work that took him around the world - and the pull that always brought him back.
Told with honesty, warmth and quiet humour, this is a story about the moments that don't look important at the time - but turn out to be everything.
About showing up.
About staying.
About the kind of love that isn't loud... but lasts.
And somewhere within it is the story of Brian Sanderson -
the life that was lived...
and Blake Sanderson -
the voice that finally chose to write it down.
Because love isn't proven in grand gestures.
It's proven in staying.
