All I am asking you is what you meant by the above comment.
Nothing macho, just a simple answer will do.
Mom (celebrates her 92nd birthday next month) called last night to chat family and world news, exchange a few laughs and confirm my wellbeing... and to report a clean bill of health this past week from both her eye doctor and general physician.

Consequently we didn't stop at our first choice destination, nor the second, nor the third, but carried on driving along the coast until, on a whim, we headed for sunny Borth. On arrival, the clouds broke up and it sunned down on us like a good 'un, while at the same time keeping up a nice fresh on-shore breeze. We bought chips from the first chippy we saw, and they were spectacularly good, so we shared 'em with a number of ravenous gulls and a couple of crows as we wandered up to Ynyslas and back. Couldn't have chosen better weather, company or food - one o' them near-perfect days.
[b]Any happy stories to tell?
Goodness knows we could all use a timely boost to our spirits. Please make our day. Thanks.
