I still wish the same. It's conversations we had that I miss the most. Sometimes they were a little crazy. My father had a very acute sense of humour. I remember having a conversation with him about his idea of having 'organic car tyres'. The tyres would grow they own tread and so never wear out <img src="/forums/images/graemlins/lol.gif" alt="" /> He pointed out that this would be a problem if you didn't drive the car for a while as the tyres would fill the fender wells and prevent the wheels from rotating <img src="/forums/images/graemlins/lol.gif" alt="" />

Despite a continuous flow of ideas like this that were only meant to entertain his brain, he made sure both my feet were firmly planted on the ground.

Yes it's tough, but many of us deal with it and so you can too Larry <img src="/forums/images/graemlins/cheers.gif" alt="" />
