just had to see if there were any final postings , on closure of the thread, and there your were !
I see now , what you are really saying, and the 'fibbing 'variety of people. I like to be clear on facts not fiction..
You use the word awesome, I presume you mean on my reaching old age , ! an old army saying, was ' just keep on waking up each morning ' !! As for the programming, bit; it was something that was alien to most people of my era, that's why it did'nt interest me ?? or I should say , it did not apply... In passing, I got my Radio 'Ham license after WW2 1946, when I eventually got out of the army, and most of my time was spent learning the only code that mattered ,Morse !! and knocking together gear that was relevant to the hobbie... Programming was for the up and coming younger generation I suppose.....
However, that's about it ,-- finally, now signing off, again, my best wishes to all concerned , including yourself, and many thanks..
