I'll post this here in anticipation of the press reports that will surface during the next few days, saying Reagan and Thatcher didn't really respect each other.

These two were 'one of a kinds', and it will be a long while before we see our nation and another nation's leaders respect and trust each other to this degree again. Perhaps never.

Perhaps it's best both Reagan and Thatcher are no longer around to see what has become of us, and what the results will be.

I miss them and those days a great deal.

“These two were ‘one of a kinds’...”

Indeed they were. I lived in Northern Ireland ‘78 - ‘81 and was there when Maggie first became PM. Still there when RR was elected (I voted absentee that election, 1980). Those were exciting times for me. In the mid-80’s we got a Yorkshire Terrior, and named her ‘Maggie’ after Maggie Thatcher.

And thanks for posting the pic...that one is a keeper!
