You're laughing at me again Colin! A hot Horlicks before bed is marvellous - as are good old fashioned things like woollen long-johns, village cricket on a summer's evening, autumn sunsets over St Ives harbour, hot toasted teacakes with butter and jam for elevenses and the Daily Telegraph crossword...these are my favourite things...all together now:  "Raindrops on roses and whiskers on kittensBright copper kettles and warm woolen mittensBrown paper packages tied up with stringsThese are a few of my favourite things..."But getting back on message, sadly, I missed the eclipse last night, so I'll have to wait for another seven years.  Wonder if I'll make it to 2015?  If I cut down on my regular fry-ups at Anne's Cafe in Northfield Ave, guess I might stand a chance.  Whad yer reckon Colin?  :-(

Well I watched a programme on BBC2 a couple of nights ago on the subject of longevity, and although diet and excercise has something to do with it, we had contrasting lifestyles and diets in Okinawa, and Sardinia, that would indicate that temprement and being at peace with yourself, and maybe a bit of humour thrown in, has as much to do with longevity as anything Gerry, so don't worry, be happy.

If it's any consolation most of the UK missed it because of the heavy cloud.It's typical of this country, if there is anything worth doing the weather messes it up, that or the government...
