I have 'This is our work', ''Women in Medicine', 'Men of the Saddle', 'Real Photographers shoot B&W' and your wonderful DVD plus the 2 Leica photographers ones we did and the LUG Yearbooks! My Dr Grant collection must be enough to retire rich on except that I would Never part with any of them. I need to bring the ones not already autographed to your 100th birthday party! =========================================== Hi Geoff, Well you do just that as I have full intention of surviving until May 27, 2029 birthday and dying on the same day! True it's all part of the "LIFE-PLAN!" J The party will be a smashing great event with barkeep with well stocked Single Malt Scotch and other liquid refreshments, A huge spread of food, with a major portion being Sushi!:-) J A band! As you know the Ted Grant motto? ;-) "Real Photographers shoot B&W. Eat Sushi & Drink Single Malt Scotch!" will be on the napkins! J And a big banner outside home. Last but not least an undertaker and crew who will whisk me out as soon as I collapse dead at precisely 6pm. And at that moment the band will begin to play, bar-keep will call out.."BARS OPEN!" The Chef will offer "FOODS ON!" And the party will begin in great fashion. J We'll also have taxis lined up curb side so guests who imbibe quite vigorously can have a free ride home and not concerned about drinking and driving over the police limit!:-) Now is that not a well planned party or what? J J And the post sent to me last evening about a copy of "This is Our Work. The Legacy of Sir William Osler." with a price of $4,896.01. Is astounding. But apparently quite legitimate. So who knows where it might be in 2029? J Or some of the other Ted Grant books, medical or otherwise! J ? Guests will be alerted a year in advance so their travel plans can be arranged in time. Bring the books early for signing as I'll be gone by 6pm! J Thank you.
