Hiya guys,
As you know last night i posted the fact that i would be visiting THE LAW MAN today and guess what;) I Did:)
I arrived at Denis's door at 10am this morning, i walked along the long drive and rang the door bell. After about 2 minutes i could hear the jangling of keys and the door being un-locked. Then into the porch came Di, Denis's wife. She asked "Yes " I said " sorry to bother you Mrs Law but is Denis at home?" She said "Yes , but he is not up yet" 10 am and still in bed lol:) So i said "Would it be ok to call back later?" She said " I am going to have my hair done but, i will go up now and tell him that you will call back in half an hour, he might get out of bed !" I said OK, i will call back in a while, i have to go and see David Herd and when i have seen him i will call back" So i left:)
I returned about an hour later, and Di's car was no longer on the drive but Denis's was 🙂 . I rang the bell again, and again. Twice, and no answer. So i thought i would go back to the vehicle and wait a while as he might be in the shower:) Just then my wife called me and we were sat gassing when i saw through the hedge, Mr Law getting into his car!!! GOTTA GO BABE i said to the wife, and ran to catch Denis just starting the engine.............. More will follow soon:) Aint i a tease:)
ONLY KIDDING ha ha ha ha. Now where was i? Oh Yeah. I went up to Denis in his car and said "Hi Denis, it's me again " and to my disbelief he said " Hello Paul, I am really sorry to hear about your Dad, i was going to reply to your letter, but i simply have not had the time" I was amazed to say the least! I then said " Dad was really happy with your message to him Denis, it made him smile with a look of pride, he told everyone in the ward" What can i do for you he said. I said " This will be the last time i boher you Sir, but i would really like you to sign my copy of your autobiography" He said "Of course i will, its a pleasure" "Would you please sign it to Knockknock? You have never signed To knock knock" He said yes. Then his phone rang, i over heard him talking to a person called Stew, about things arriving broken. I didnt earwig too much. Once the phone call was over Denis started to sign my book. as you can all see, this he did:)
I then asked him "How is the wrist" He said "Really painful, i had a cortizone injection 2 weeks ago, but it has flared up again this past week" " I am on way to the hospital for another injection in the side of my wrist this time" I said "Well i hope they sort it for you, and it settles"
I then asked " Are you moving again Denis?" Yeah, he replied. Living in rented prperty you cant settle down"
I then asked him for Nigel, if he had received a multi signed book from my friend Nigel? He said " I cant remember getting one sent to me" I said oh as he sent it to you here and he has asked me to ask if i could pick it up, and i could then return it to him. "Sorry, but i have not received any books" He said. Sorry Nigel but i did try mate. It would seem it is lost:(
I then bid him a fond goodbye as this will be rhe last time i meet the KING at his door:( I figure i have knocked on him enough now:) Then he drove off to the hospital:)
Thank you Denis for being such a gentleman and for being .............. A Friend:)

#19 - Daz. No chance if Denis does not have it sadly, it has been 6 weeks now. Local sorting offices only keep mail for 3 weeks before returning it. If it was not delivered I would have already had it back as my return address was clearly on the back.

must admit,it doesnt look good then,.just hope it turns up somehow though,,i hate to see multi signed items not returned,i know how costly sending it out is,and also how precious it is to the owner
