Wow ..... I'm truly humbled by the outpouring of good wishes from you guys [ and girls ]. I honestly DO feel rejuvenated and going to live forever - as we all think when we're 20, 30, 40, 50. 60 .......
I was given this quote by one of my good pals - you know who you are and I'm shamelessly going to steal it for myself.
" FATE WHISPERS TO THE WARRIOR ..... YOU CANNOT WITHSTAND THIS STORM ..... AND THE WARRIOR SAYS...................... I AM THE STORM".
Tim / RS - I have been thinking along those lines. As and when the Book is completed I was wondering if I could put together a tour of talks and book signings that might pay for my trip to meet you all. Barber I guess is the obvious place. To be realistic I don't see the book being published this year [ it WILL be completed ] and next year is my 3 score and 15 .... seems like an appropriate time - three quarters of a century - not out [ cricket parlance ! ] to contemplate a trip. Let's see.
Once more, my undying gratitude for all your thoughts, prayers and good wishes.
