I'll second that-- Best of all luck Mate- you come from a tough and hardy breed- and we all have you in our thoughts and prayers. I have nothing but the utmost respect for a man who will not give up- like your Country's great poet and author- from another era, yes- but the words of Kipling's poem "If" still ring true today, as when he wrote them for his young son- Thought about that a bit recently- Mae and I went to see the latest Spielberg film "War Horse" and the endless trench warfare- Kipling's only son was a lst. leftennant in the Coldstream guards and was killed in 1916 at the Battle of the Somme- along with 60,000 other brave british troops that bloody day- it broke Kipling's heart--but he never gave up, just like in the poem- Godspeed---RWTF
