Hi Tony. Great to hear from you. Must say I like your vehicle! We are fine here and about to celebrate our 50th wedding anniversary on the 28th. We had an all day Dillwyn Symposium recently in Swansea and I did a talk on his photography.

Not sure if this is OK by the group but might I have your direct e-mail address. Ours is now r.morris210@btinternet.com We changed it about 2 years ago.
We spent a month in Oz last July and stayed in 9 different hotels and 11 flights. Went from east to west and south to north including the Ghan train which was an experience.
Regards Sue and Richard
regards to you all and do get in touch.

Hope al is well with you. I guess you can catch up with my more recent activities at www.michaelhallett.com.
All good wishes, Mike
