am sorry that Penny and I will not be able to attend the barbeque. We had every
intention of doing so but our eldest son had a total collapse of his system
last Friday and is now in Harefield Hospital, the UK centre of excellence for
heart and lungs where he is recovering heart and liver functions. We are living
there in our caravan and only have occasional internet access. We hope that he
will be well enough to return home in 2 or three weeks.<o:p></o:p></span></p>
