<span style="font-family: 'comic sans ms', sans-serif; color: #0000ff; font-size: 14pt;">It's been a tough year for me but the western world has also had its issues to deal with. Not only did we lose Jane we also lost many, many other talented people - David Bowie; Terry Wogan; Victoria Wood; Alan Rickman; to name but a few...</span>

<span style="font-family: 'comic sans ms', sans-serif; color: #0000ff; font-size: 14pt;">I won't mention Brexit and Trump - oops too late but then again I was lying when I said I wouldn't mention them which seems appropriate for those two events because they will always be remembered for the falsehoods bandied about. Only time will tell who voted in the right way.</span>

<span style="font-family: 'comic sans ms', sans-serif; color: #0000ff; font-size: 14pt;">Which brings me to the future; enough looking back and let's all look to the present because we can never tell what the future holds for us all. I wish all of you a Happy New Year and a very big thank you for all your support and kindness over the past 12 months.</span>
