    Hi Fay

    Did you drop down and faint when DOS apologised or did you have a mental cartoon picture in your head with you hitting him over the head with a mallet - or even willow in your case!

    The picture is beautiful and has made me feel very envious. I had promised myself a walk tonight but have to write a report. I had a really horrid time in my job a while ago and didn't keep up as my workload was really about three people's. I left a lot of stuff unfinished at the time and have nver really made it good so today someone asked for a report that I hadn't written 2 years ago! So I am doing it now - I am impressed with how good my notes are - I can still write the report! But I am missing out on my own free time.

    Take a deep breath of lovely country air for me!

    Oh Fay ... words fail me as to how beautiful that is. Thanks for posting it - no fast lane living here, tho it might sound like it cos I'm in London today, but I'm in a building doing the same work I usually do, thats all.

    Hope everyone has a good one.

    Thats true of all of us. I feel really poverty stricken when I think about money, but I have a roof over my head, and I live in a nice area, suburban, yes, but the greenest place I've ever lived. I feel [strike]lucky[/strike] privileged in that way.
