		My greatest fear is that when I die my wife will sell my collection for what I told her it cost me.

I guess that just the old fashion Spencer park? Same place? Well I might just have a little sleep-in first and I'll be there about 10.30am I reckon.

It's been about 30 years since I've been there. Takes a while to get the wife and kids started in the morning so we won't be early. Mr Silverbug is already pulling all the rings up no doubt.
