    No problem can withstand the assault of sustained thought.
    Only after the last tree has been cut down. Only after the last fish has been caught. Only after the last river has been poisoned. Only then will you realize that money cannot be eaten.

    It started as a joke as DH was flying to Tokyo today and I said if he couldn't do it they wouldn't let him past customs :rotfl:

    Is he away long? Hope he's back with you all soon :A

    DH is due back from Germany late tonight, so I'm off to see if I can get a few hours sleep first :)

    See you all tomorrow.
