Derek,
Thanks mate, I was born in Dublin Ireland, but went to England in my teens. And educated there, so I am sort of Anglo-English. And I was raised R. Catholic, but was converted to Christ in my late teens. I am, well lets say I am over 50, lol. Okay I just turned 60 in Oct, of 09. But I am still at it by the grace of God! And the wee pic of me was yeah, just last year. Since I was a Royal Marine, I am still about 155lbs at 5’11, like your American Marines…lean and mean! lol Oh so I think..lol.
*that should have been Anglo-Irish, I am tired..
