Had an email earlier from the man himself.
He's still getting over the shock and kept it brief but it's the last line or two that really got me. I may need more tissues.
'I don't know where to start but just thought I'd break the ice. I really hope you get back to me, Glen.
Luvsya, even though we've never met or even spoken. Hugs and kisses to you and Sheila...and any other siblings that are around, though my head isn't quite clear on who is (I'm getting senile in my old age LOL) and who you're in touch with'

My coal is spent, my iron's gone
My nails are drove, my work is done
