Thanks for the comments Willow and Garinda! They warmed me heart.
Gary you are so right about our differences. However, being able to sit with you for ~3 hours (and hence giving up my party invite by those two lasses at Ianto's pub



) was quite amazing. It is a rare time when I can do that with even my closest friends. And all this while not playing cards or watching a sporting event on the tele.
Oh and since you brought it up let me tell you all about Annie's preparation for James Madison University and Joshua's current Boy Scout Camp trip and all the numerous Merit badges I'm just sure he will earn . . . .



Now, what shall I gather from those so-called Mates that didn't reply . . . Was my question so deep they continue to draft a sincere sensitive reply? Or, are they working with the Mods. to banned this babbling lump from across the pond?
Now that I've taught you about hunting (not shooting, Rindy) hunting I'll send over the recipe's along with 3 three squirrels needed for a nice stew for one!
Hugs and Kisses!
Brian
