      Dear Susan Bradley thank you for making my morning.  Mel is one of my all time favourites I have all his movies on DVD.  Life is too short and serious to be without Mel. His take on Windows 10 – “Why is MS like toilet paper?  Over a billion people use it.”  I’ll have to watch Blazing Saddles or History of the World Part 1 again – my antidote to MS Windows 10.
