Personal Thanks

I would like to thank all those who attended the Astrofest who so often came to my aid when my balance mechanisms failed and I fell over. I have a spinal problem that does not
send balancing messages to my lower half. Gerald Sargent

They're a great bunch of folk aren't they Gerald.
I enjoyed the time we spent together and am looking forward to seeing you again next year.

I was on the receiving end of much kindness during my time there too. I'll take this opportunity to say "Thank you" as well.

Yes Gerald I couldn't agree more, people really look after each other there. It is such a community of spirit. Everyone is welcomed and looked after, from the smallest baby, and i mean nearly newborne, through to the children and every adult. Frankly I think it should be the number one Astrofest of its type in the world on that alone.

I should perhaps mention that Gerald came to MY rescue when I managed to fall out of my bunk and he then proceeded to safely tuck me back into bed.
Thanks Gerald - your a diamond.

You are an inspiration Gerald - to be doing what you, are at your age, is outstanding. I often say I'd like a dose of whatever my kids are on to give me an energy boost - maybe I should ask for a dose of your medicine!

I have to agree with David, Gerald you are an inspiration, at your age you're entitled to the odd vertical anomaly.
