Happy Anniversary, Maggie! You, too, ya ol' walrus! Teddy, I don't think you need to handcuff her to the bunk any longer and can let her loose - sounds to me as if she's not planning on going anywhere.

All the best you two!

Richard

Maggie said she still loves your courage to stand up against the rest of us when you know your right........ She's still a believer in being the devil's advocate when need be....... She's still your #1 supporter.........
