What an amazing age to reach.

What an amazing age to reach. I'm sure your Mother in law had a wonderful 106 birthday celebration. She sounds like such a positive lady.

You've spoken from the heart Harry. Being one who suffers from anxiety myself, to a degree I can understand how you feel. Perhaps going through what you went through led you to that job you've just retired from, it meant that you could have...

What special memories Harry.

What special memories Harry. I loved the part about how your nan met her husband. I often wonder what my own life would have been like, had I gone down a different path.
