In celebration of your retirement here is a giant ice cream cone to salute you, Gordon.

Well thank you Neil. Would you mind if I eat it now before it melts?

LOL, Looks like you waited too long. (Hope you noticed it was made from an air traffic control tower!!  )_________________ "I haven't failed.... I've found 10,000 ways that don't work!" Thomas Edison |

Re: GKB Retirement
I haven't a clue where this tower is located, Gordon!!!  LOL! I just know it is a air traffic control tower that looked like a cone. So I added ice cream. I had noticed your retirement poster. Thought it would be a fitting tribute for your retirement. Congratulations.

Actually I have just realised that it is the new Control Tower at Edinburgh Airport on the east coast of Scotland. The ice cream was delicious by the way - I must retire more often! Gordon |

Re: GKB Retirement
Dave, Sorry, not an encyclopaedic knowledge of the Control Towers of the world - the clue lies in the words "Edinburgh Airport" on the roof of the Terminal Building in the background, I'm afraid. |

Very good Dirtdoctor and Gordon (This would have been good for the Gherkin Challenge!) |
