    Lou, Friends are the leaves on the tree of life.


    On a different note, it is far better to get a gift from the Doc, that to go and see the doc with a gift you did not want!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
    Happy daze John in Oz.

    i would like to think we are all true friends on this site there may be some disagreements on views? some site there is sniping and lots of backstabbing no need really but our site although most never come face to face we would still empty our pockets for each other same as a hot date with a fair maiden in a foreign land.jp

    Hi Lou,
    I too got a lovely gift from Vernon when I met him up at Echo Point in the Blue Mountains.
    It is on the wall facing me as I write. , Always a memory.
    Many Thanks again Vernon. Lovely man.
    Cheers
    Brian.

    One Saturday a few weeks ago a parcel carrier arrived at my home and gave me a package.As I never receive parcels from anyone I was opening it very carefully looking for wires or batteries all clear so proceeded with the opening.Eventualy getting through the bubblewrap I came across a Hi-Ball Tumbler,it is enscribed with the MN badge,my name and DB number and the date and name of my first ship a very nice keepsake.Who was it from ?well I suppose it could only come from one person and that person being Vernon who I thanked very much.Vernon I have lost the picture of it that I sent you could you please attach it to this post.Once again Vernon thanks very much.
    Regards.
    Jim.B.

    As requested Jim !
    Cheers
