M'Lady Frye, in regards to racing stripes upon my found cane, I have been thinking of joining a cane racing club as this would spice up my doterage and bring back the thrills of yesteryear, one of the requirements is that one must implore specific art work on one's candy cane style of transport. Alas, I'm do not enjoy the fortune of being gifted with the touch. Besides, I have trouble triming walls near the ceiling as the Mrs has brought to my attention on a number of occasions

however, one must try new things to increase one's awareness that surrounds him/her, so I may yet give it a go.
As ever, your humble servant
Mac
