    Thanks Vera for some cracking acting. The comedy scenes with you and Jack plus others were priceless. As I am mainly housebound you and Jack entertained me royally. As for the poignant scenes you really put your heart and soul into it.
    Enjoy your retirement chuck you have earned it. I only hope that now you are taking things a lot easier that you keep in better health!
