Just shows boc61 how a hobby interest can overtake much else, eh? Reminds me of this joke.
A man let's call him Andy was playing his enthusiastic game of golf with a pal. They were not far away from the boundary fence. As Andy was boput to take a shot a long funeral started to pass near them and Andy suddenly turned to face the procession, jumped to attention taking his golf hat off and giving a polite bow. His friend said "Phew Andy that was a very nice and respectable thing to do." Andy turned and answered. "Yeah, she was a wonderful wife.to me."
