Beany's Better Half

What makes a British kit a Classic? What Classic kit is really British? What is the SIG all about and what goes on...from initial musings, to full on campaigning. It'll all be here, interspersed with talk of Texan Bars, Alias Smith & Jones and The Flashing Blade, Footy Cards and Bath Night, before School.

Beany's Better Half

Post by beany »

Hi fellow CBK SIGers,

just wanted to let you know that Carrie and I have been to the hospital today and she has been given the all clear/no further treatment required following her hysterectomy in November (after a diagnosis of cervical cancer at the end of October). We will both sleep a lot easier tonight, so many thanks to those of you who sent kind thoughts to us both and more importantly, consoled with me about having to miss Telford this year! :shock: :ha:

Cheers
Al & Carrie
