My photograph and letter in today's Daily Mail
In answer to an article last week, I sent a letter to the paper and, a day later, was surprised to have a 'phone call to say they liked the letter and could they send a photographer round at a convenient time for me. A charming freelance photographer came on Saturday morning, had coffee and cake with us, then took about 30 - 40 photos and today, 22/3/2010, I am staring out of the letters page. I didn't know I looked that old, but other people say it's a good photo.

P.S - You don't look old.
Thank you everybody!
Verica your a real trooper and alot of people would have taken a stroke as the signal of the end of their life. You took yours as the beginning. There should be more like you. Well done xx
After all the excitement yesterday, I feel ill today with a very bad almost continuous cough, which stopped me sleeping throughout the night. I've never had bronchitis before, but am sure this is it.
I often think about a comment I read about a lady of 100, who said that she wished she'd started to learn the violin at 40, because then she'd have been playing it for 60 years. A lesson to us all that it's never too late to start something.
PS. Verica, are you sure the cough isn't asthma, brought on by the excitement? It does happen like that sometimes.
BD, you climb as many steps as you want for as long as you want and are able to.
