Nice. Looking back can I find make future brighter. Looking back helped me appreciate a life full of quiet achievement. Some things I did, were not big deal at time but looking forward they were quite something and worth crowing about. It is same for others I know. Sometimes we don't get big write up we might just deserve. Best wishes David.
