25epps,

Yep, even though many people tell you about getting older, it usually doesn't sink in until you get there!

One of my pen-pals in in Australia sent me a copy of SECRETS OF THE SAMBAR, Volume 1, by Errol Mann. Don't know if you have seen it (my copy is one of 138 copies of a limited edition, and it's wonderful book, which makes me want to hunt them in Oz! Don't know if that will ever happen (have pretty much had my fill of flying around the world) but who knows?

Thanks very much. Hope you have a great Christmas as well,
John
