Such a great tribute Chris, there were many old boys in the pub back in the day and they were always interesting to chat with.

Cheers Dave.
Not sure what I was trying to convey really.
Modern media, I think influences and disrupts the clarity of our thinking.

Doggerel Dave said:
Took me down a fairly tortured path there Chris. Significant lines there would include:
I’m happy that if life is short, at least the words I write are mine.
Free your mind and let the words you’ve written show the way.
Tell the world exactly what you’ve seen.
Refuse to let them tell you what to think.
Don’t forget you\'ll always be a fighter.
Your words become testimony to all the things you saw.
Equality belongs to every boy and girl.
Enjoyed the ride.

Regularity is often seen as a virtue, Chris.
Further, the vitamins and minerals plus protein in petfood today in all probability replenished his dwindling stocks after the Wednesday tryst... Great laugh from me!

\"I ache in the places where I used to play\" - L Cohen.
You\'re a bit hard on the jolly old ageing process, aren\'t you, Chris?
Can\'t believe it is going to be as bad as that.... I suppose I might find out one day....😉

The smile.
Doggerel Dave said:
\'Afternoon Chris
Met with Amazon...no smile.
Burning? Burning? How are you going to feel when a polar bear fronts up after a long swim, knocks on your door and asks to use your bathroom?

Chris Duffy said:
Morning Dave.
Hope you’re well.
The smile is the logo of Amazon, a home shopping online business.
I’d be surprised if you don’t have access to it?
As for the cardboard, I burn the beggar.
Sod the planet! Polar bears can swim.
Thanks for the message. It’s always nice to hear from you.

Smile not here yet, Chris, although the packages certainly are. A read I can relate to.... online shopping has crept up on me, luckily at an age when I don\'t really need much in the cupboard I choose to call home (love it!)
Family life without a wife is certainly much simpler, I think.
So in the belief there is a thread of truth running through your fun read, I\'ve only one question: How do you dispose of all that cardboard (the stuff with the smilies on)? Another excuse me on the way?

More than that, a belly laugh Chris.
Good job I live alone - no one could endure that vocalisation anyway.
On the positive side, it makes me soapy free.
Thanks v much!

A flood of raw sadness has washed over my whole being while reading this...memories of our departed that alighted and left us behind in this rambling train, awakened.
Soon, the train will be at my station too.
Thank you for this one Chris
