Oooohhhh, Buster, now you've opened the floodgates, stand clear, mate!! Thanks for your wishes.
Dogbreath: Your maths is spot-on, but I don't hve any age hang-ups, I was 63 yesterday and nothing is going to change the fact. I have led a, (to a degree), charmed life, most of my working time in the inimitable world of aviation, for which I thank God. My family life is without peer, a wife who has withstood the rigours of 22 years' RAF life, all over the world, followed by 19 with AN finishing with a less-then-desirable crash. She has been the light of my life for the past 43 years, on the 31Oct02, but who's counting? We have stood by each other through everything, have two daughters to be inestimably proud of, and three grand-children. With the exception of now having to attend a job which affords me very little satisfaction, I have little to complain of, I think I can truly say "I am a relatively happy and contented person", what more should I be asking?
Kind regards to all,
TheNightOwl.
