Thanks, Tina,
he keeps saying he's a little slow these days, but if there's a dressed 
crab and a pint of real ale in the offing, he still picks up a fair turn 
of speed :-)   We're already sick and tired of hearing "Well, lad, it's 
the last time we'll be seeing you in Whitby" (since he turned 70).
 Mum, just had her 87th, and arrived in Whitby only 1 week after having 
a new pacemaker put in ( they managed to puncture one lung at the same 
time too, but that was only 5 days before she came) - a tough lot us 
Sharps :-) 
Best from Hannover
Douglas
BTW, for other readers - he dosen't look the slightest bit like Wilfred 
Bramble - but he's clean anyway ;-)
