For the last 20 years Tony has welcomed us when we pick up the Christmas Smith Family Hampers for delivery... but he's been doing it - in the suit - for 37 years and this is the first time anyone has taken his photo he told me. Here he is bright and chirpy at 7:45 this morning but it was a different story when returned at about 11am, (we had to bring back a hamper because someone wasn't home) Tony was seated looking pooped... but still waving and smiling :-) nice bloke, originally from Yorkshire.
We spent the morning at Glenmore Park an enormous estate, with enormous homes, nice enough except for the roads... there wasn't 100m straight, it's like a wriggly wiggly worm designed them LOL we think they might be like this to stop kids racing!
