It made me realise a few things and I even got a round of applause at the end and everyone telling me I was brilliant and really brave. I'm not used to feedback like that.
    You did brilliantly there Jaq, I'm very proud of you.

    Perhaps now you'll start to believe what the rest of us have been saying for years.
    77 and counting, less of the "Old" call me "Mike"

    and I’m so happy he’s reclaiming the place for the two of you!
    The purpose of life is not to be happy. It is to be useful, to be honorable, to be compassionate, to have it make some difference that you have lived and lived well.
