Thank you all for your support last Saturday and thank you to Gil for the kind words and I am not used to driving before waking up!? Thank you for the flowers they were a lovely surprise and greatly appreciated. I don’t think I’ll see another ‘0’ birthday with the golf club as I’ll either be in a rest home or at the funny farm!
