I know how you're feeling Alan, I went to one of my friends funeral last week - he was two years younger than me.So sad, you expect to get at least your three score and ten but life can be cruel.

Really sorry to hear that. At least he had a damn good Saturday!



Later in life, I have been lucky. I have managed to do just about everything I wanted to and have enjoyed it all.



I said to a friend the other day, "Yes, it is sad when friends pass, but when I go remember, I've had a damn good time, and I thank my family and friends for helping it happen!"



I make it count, for myself and those around me.



again, sorry to hear the news
