Jan Allison Date: 6/5/2019 2:09:00 PM Fat chance indeed, great message though GW. I do try and walk rather than drive ... especially at this time of year with the TT races and all those leather clad bikers around ... gives me better chance to ogle lol:-) hugs jan xx Login to Reply Gershon Wolf Date: 6/5/2019 2:29:00 PM Maybe I should have titled this, 'Slim Chance,' given the P.C. knocks that await me.
