My Dad's shop was right next to that lobby. He had to walk through to get to his office out the back. Ernie asked him if he knew whose suitcase it was. Dad was sitting at his desk in front of a glass wall when the bomb went off shattering the glass all around him leaving the glass directly behind his head intact. Poor Ernie and his dog were not so lucky.
Brilliant -loved the term "pop up leader of the opposition"
Thanks Ann
You have a gift.
Thanks David. Really appreciate it.
"I've been better, I've been worse, and I'll be both again." my reflex response.

Excellent realism
