A joy to behold - we have them right through August and the beginning of September. Then they're off to wherever King Billies go.

Yeah - heh! heh! It's funny how we find ourselves repeating our parents.

Something my parents used to say - everything the working man enjoys, they'll tax it or take it away.

And everybody looks younger to me now. Even the 40 somethings look like kids.
