Thanks guys, I have only just seen this!
My birthday was a bit sad this year, I treated myself to a new Ducati 800 Scrambler Icon which I pick up next week.
But on the 5th April it was my Dad's funeral, so I have been away at my Mum's for the last week.
That's why I missed your posts.

Very sorry to hear this.
My best wishes go out to you, your family and friends.

Thanks guys, it has been a difficult 3 months. Dad was taken into hospital in January with a viral infection on his brain. Within a week he was in intensive care on life support, where he remained for 2 weeks before we had to make the decision to turn off the machines keeping him alive.
Because life support was removed, it was then referred to the Coroner's office, so it was 3 weeks before we got a death certificate to enable us to arrange the funeral.
So the funeral was 7 weeks after he passed away, which is a long time to wait, especially for Mum.
He passed away 1 month before his 80th Birthday.

Very sad to hear all that. All the best

Shame man this really could have not been nice at all to still have to wait all that time.
