Congrats Bill!

Congrats Grandpa! I'd say a trip to see the young fellow (and some chalk streams) is in order.

Yes, that's the plan in May. Visit my daughter and grandchildren and sneak off to the Test during Mayfly time. Even us old guys can see those battleships floating down the river.

Thanks again, guys!
Set the hook!
