Ahh, good evening Mr Napier, how nice to see that your compus mentis 
again after your recent period of inebriation. When one arrives at 
your advanced number of years I presume it takes you longer to 
recover than us younger guys? Never mind, it can only be further 
downhill for you from now on. ;-)))
By the way, your posting is factually inaccurate; I did know my 
father, met him most of my life and even worked in the same business 
as him. After my parents had me they gave up trying for another as 
they said that you can't beat perfection, ahem! ;-)))
How's the cut round your way? We've had some snow today but the cut 
isn't freezing over yet. Forecast is for warmer weather in the next 
day or so but I must get around to winterising Albion soon just in 
case we get a sudden really cold snap. There is an advantage to live-
aboard boating; you don't have that chore every year.
ATB
Roger
