Thank you Rob, I am glad you gave these words the thumbs up .. I was there not that very long ago & could see & feel both the dreadful hardship, suffering & pain for myself .. There was also a prevailing undercurrent of stoic determination, optimism, hope & resilience .. but even back then, we all knew the winter was coming .. Thank you again sir and seasons best to you and yours .. Neville
