    Evening, folks.

    I'm back, as promised.:D

    *Waves to Ishtar and Rach*

    Triker that sounds like a heck of a nasty virus - take care, and make sure to get your strength back before trying anything strenuous.

    Greenbee Mr LW doesn't check his email every day - in fact it often requires a gentle nudge from me before he bothers, so perhaps your friend is similar?

    I have also made time for me this afternoon, didn't actually get to the sewing stage but sorted out the threads of a cross stitch kit so enjoyed doing that.
    Now I must finish off my planning before I have to have a late night!

    Greenbee - hugs again. The email you sent - he probably needs to think a bit before replying or, he could just have a life and be busy and not checked emails yet!
    Thanks... and to everyone else for the support. I wasn't expecting an instant response, but at the same time I'm a little worried about the impact it might have. Judging by the reaction on Saturday I may well just have dropped a large bomb into someone's life and I don't know whether this will have made it better or worse. Mind you, being a man he'll probably stick his head in the sand and hope the problem will go away! Email went to work address :o as that's all I have.

    good to see you've all had a productive day. I'm just back from work and have some things to sort for tomorrow as I have early calls for Asia :(

    Triker - hope you and Mr Triker get well soon.

    I quite fancy a hot bath with a book and a glass of wine and an early night, but I bet it doesn't happen!

    Thank you; it was this one I was watching, not the Famous and Jobless one ;)
