Colin, listening to your program brings to mind the old adage of a drowning man seeing all his life enfold before he snuffs it! Well, my life has been well-covered in your selections so far so I just hope I make it to Episode 12 (of the next ten series!)
Hi Lance,
What a great comment, Steve the producer loved it, so did the guys at the bar. Let'd see what I can drag up for episode 7. And I will see you in July after the 12th episode !!!
