Many many thanks to you all for the kind messages.
Great to have so many nice friends like this.
Its a daunting reality for me now that today I qualify for membership to Grey power, the NZ lobby group who fight for the elderly, can buy a retirement unit at the local retirement village-BUT that won't happen! and get reduced life insurance premiums. I think afew more things as well.........BUT I'M NOT TELLING ANYONE AROUND HERE!!!
Believe it of not I am spending my birthday lunch with our currant list M.P. who hopefully will be government soon. A nice family man at that.
My wife made a lovely tea last night and we had family around as Mondays are always messy being start of the week.
I received a lovely maritime history book so will be engrossed in that this evening, but lots of work to do inbetween all this.
I will toast all your good health and many thanks to you all.
cheers,
Wallace
