    Thanks for the update Star, you just tell that husband of yours that you are in charge during recuperation time and he really must live up to Rumpoles saying of "she who must be obeyed" All the best to you, Jamie and the children. Great News

    Excellent news. I don't even know the dude apart from posts, but anyone with his skill at facial hair needs to stick around and share the glory.

    Some may be interested in where that phrase actually originated. I read Haggard's "She" as a lad nearly half a century ago:

    I think Star qualifies for the role.

    EDIT: Hmm, maybe there's some connection with Jamie liking pith helmets. . .

    I heard that phrase the other day, Dale and wondered about its origin. Thank for sharing that link. Pretty interesting.

    From what I've seen, Star is definately a trooper. Hats off to Jamie and Star and their loved ones. Here's to a quick and full recovery.

    That really is excellent news. Another damn good reason to raise a glass in toast to Jamies continued recovery. I may not be able to be there in person but I can certainly be there in "spirit".

    I haven't been reading the miscellaneous forum lately and I completely missed this thread! Jamie! I'm so glad you are still with us! I really wish I could have added my thoughts and prayers when you really needed them. But I am thinking of you now!
