Over the years that I have been privileged to be a part of the esteemed HOL, some views have been antithetical to mine with the debates, in turns, pulsating and saccharine.
Indeed I have faced shot and shell, lexical fireworks aimed in my direction, but I have always sought to argue my corner with dignity and free of personal slurs.
In the final analysis the smorgasbord of opinions all add to the rich tapestry of HOL and I trust that the positive 'Direction of travel' will continue long after I make the decision either to disappear into the ether or I face the 'Pearly Gates' whichever is the sooner.
