Thanks all - I'm having a great day.

Went round all the reachable Goodwills this morning with my grandson - with the discount card I have I get 25% discount on everything today and we cleaned up with yarn for me and all sorts of stuff for Lewis, although I am learning to say no more often, particularly to the three foot tall penguin cuddly toy he wanted.

We had lunch with SINSULL and spent a nice hour or so wandering round the Old Port shops in Portland. This evening will be a meal at Applebees - we're taking two cars in case the noise gets to be too much for the Old Guy.

I've been spoiled with presents and cards - all in all getting to Medicare age has been good so far.
