Good man, my dad had a stroke last year, prostrate cancer this year and is half way through his radio. Hope he is playing with his trains in 6 mths time.

Congrats
 
Glass raised.


Good on him!

And, if I may, I think a certain Bard of the Land of my Fathers had something to say here;

Do not go gentle into that good night,
Old age should burn and rave at close of day;
Rage, rage against the dying of the light.

Though wise men at their end know dark is right,
Because their words had forked no lightning they
Do not go gentle into that good night.

Good men, the last wave by, crying how bright
Their frail deeds might have danced in a green bay,
Rage, rage against the dying of the light.

Wild men who caught and sang the sun in flight,
And learn, too late, they grieved it on its way,
Do not go gentle into that good night.

Grave men, near death, who see with blinding sight
Blind eyes could blaze like meteors and be gay,
Rage, rage against the dying of the light.

And you, my father, there on the sad height,
Curse, bless me now with your fierce tears, I pray.
Do not go gentle into that good night.
Rage, rage against the dying of the light
 
Thats fantastic!

I hope all goes well for your whole family.

Much respect and all the best Da', don't let your son get out of his bike wrenching duties though! :wink:

All the best,Al
