Made it! And I shan’t trouble you with the old joke about the gents’ public lavatory either.
A very eventful 17 or 18 days but we saved the most eventful of the events for this lunchtime.
Right now though, having just arrived in Calgary, I’m off to bed. For one reason about which I will explain anon when I’m in better shape to catch up with things, I’ll tell you all about it.
In the meantime I’m going to pick up from here and deal with the arrears “as and when”.
I’ve had an exciting time, but excitement in all directions too.
And if anyone asks me if the negative issues worth the pain, the answer is that they most certainly were because despite their ultimate negativity, the events leading thereupto were events that I would not have missed for the world. I had the time of my life (time that I never had as a kid) in pleasant, interesting and exciting company and in the morning I shall remember the words of Kris Kristofferson, who wrote
“I’ll give all my tomorrows for a single yesterday”.
Even if it has made me about as welcome as a rattlesnake in a lucky dip on any future Adventure Canada sailings.
