Just to be clear, my comment "same to you VT" was in reference to "missing you terribly" not in "growing on me a little". Just in case clarification is needed.
All good Gary. I knew what you meant. I would miss you too :D

The freedom we have on this forum to say just about anything we want to is quite remarkable these days. We should appreciate it while we've got it.

And not only are comedians not allowed to do comedy any more, they are also required to have pristine, monkish personal lives. Nothing less will do for our modern day version of Puritanism.
