Also, a feeling of nostalgia came, over me when 1 reverted back to the Rood old days. It w.is tough going for a few years but I shall always remember and cherish those days.

I also had 'the ability to widen my acquaintances, remember names, initials and faces, some of the chief essentials in reporting.
