Re: My Dad passed away tonight age 92,an amazing man.

Kudu. You're a fine man and you must keep going. You know my circumstances as well. Triumph through adversity and all that. Remember people care.
Just one word of advice, take the train to Belgium - flying anywhere is a frigging nightmare mate! :grin:

Yep, despite it being in the can already.
