And I've been thinking of him a lot. One of my favourite stories of Ted is from a visit, years ago, when Tom, Tuulikki, Ted & Irene were visiting us in Logan Lake. After Rose had served a sumptuous breakfast, we boys were heading out in pursuit of whatever it is that I can't remember. As slung my R8 over my shoulder, Ted looked at me and quietly said: "So nice to see you've finally finished getting dressed." :-) David. > So sorry to hear the turn of events with Ted.
