Reminds me I must have a chat with the 22 year old Son.

To attempt to explain to him, that, at the same age, my father parhaps had cause to feel disappointed in me (feart o heights etc) and not to worry, cos he (our Son), I have cause to hope, will grow up into a better man than I.

Who am now less feart o heights than wor Son, quite funny really, watching him cling to the top rung of a 12 foot ladder.(recently)

This the same Son who followed me to near the top of a triple extension ladder, when he was about 2, I near shat myself when I felt the touch on my ankle and realized where he was.

Quite unpreturbed, he was..

He also free climbed the blackstone wall of the Bush bridge at Stranocum, when 4 or 5, it was only perhaps 10/12/15 feet high.
