Sorry gang, have'nt had a lot of time to communicate but I see there are some concerns regarding "us" westerners not posting.  I personally have been just tooooooo busy golfing, sunshine strolls, picking daffodils, canoeing, laying on the beach or just sitting on my patio having a couple of wobbly pops watching the junior girls softball team getting in shape for the upcoming season.  Will try and be more dilligent in the future.  Before I forget, a quick tip to Barry..............."try and use the finger interlock grip" while working the snow shovel, you'll be surprised how far ahead of your buddies you'll be for the golf season.......nufsed......cheers....normie
