[Martin Kay @flashingbat]

Seems like a lifetime ago. When I read about these sorts of reports I always focus on the great people affiliated to the NMCL. We had some brilliant administrators across the years.

@andywilkes7 All good here also. Karen is still putting up with me 😂. Our daughter Olivia is now 25 and out in Australia playing cricket. Problem is I’m doing more funerals than fun parties. Must be an age thing 🤷‍♂️

[Martin Kay @flashingbat]

@andywilkes7 Wow well spotted Andy. Hope you are well?
