Wow! From what would have to have been about the most unpromising start imaginable, this thread has grown into one of the best examples of what I think Danny might have had in mind all those years ago when he stared this site.
Danny, could I endorse Brian Abraham’s suggestion that this thread be re-named and placed in an easy to find place on the Home Page (similar to the now sadly missed Humour Page)? It would be a tragedy for it to disappear onto page ‘n’ of the archives.
Thanks almost entirely to the truly inspiring posts from Lyle Prouse, (but also some others), this thread has moved on well beyond the unfortunate incident that sparked it off, and I know that JD, if was able to see ALL of what’s been written here, would be glad something so positive has come of it despite his - and perhaps even moreso, his wife’s – current quite horrible situation.
