You Sad Pathetic Man...

[Joe Guy]

You are doing the right thing, Meade.

I'm sure it's only natural for you.

[MajGenl.Meade]

All things considered, I'd rather be in Philadelphia.

Thanks gentlepeople.

Thanks gentlepeople.

Remember, I'm in Philly.

Now off with you and tend to your pressing family matters. I hope you make it before that final chapter is written. Godspeed.

Our thoughts are with you at this sad time Meade.

(PS> Emirates are very good, don't worry about them.)

They f*ing throw f*ing money at f*ing Arsenal - what more damage could they do?

As to mum, she's still in this world just about; pretty much all of her except the cantankerousness has been drained out. It was good to be with her while she was still able to recognise me and speak reasonably coherently on most days. Some days she just slept. Doctors would not give a prognosis but it was they who suggested I come at once apparently. She's ready to "go" as she insisted more than once but the body just hangs on, doesn't it?

Lynn and I are booked (in more sedate fashion) to go to the UK June 24 for 3+ weeks (while the Bolokanang kids are on school holidays) and perhaps mum will still be there then. In many ways, I hope not - she's not getting out alive whether it's William Harvey or St Mark's hospitals.

Ah well - thanks again to all
Meade
