My Dad was the highest bidder!

Hi again M,

When I wrote to Angela to tell her about the auction result, I asked if she would have time for a cup of tea with you following the reception.

Nevertheless my doctors (surgeon & oncologist) insist on monitoring my health for many years to make sure the wretched disease doesn’t make a comeback.

One of my favourite retirement activities is dabbling and doodling with ideas in mathematical physics, and I will soon submit another paper for publication.

K and C will both be with us for Christmas (Alleluia!)
