    No - would remember if she definitely told me. All I can think is that she sent it out as an email and forgot me off by mistake so she thinks she told me but didn't actually.
    Man plans and God laughs...
    Perhaps travel cannot prevent bigotry. But by demonstrating that all people cry, laugh, eat, worry and die, it introduces the idea that if we try to understand each other, we may even become friends.

    I'd answer the current message politely .. fine thanks, weather's crap, bins now emptied fortnightly etc.. no opening of conversations so she has nothing to respond to and let it die a death.. don't message her randomly or text or anything.

    She hasn't been rude or nasty so why hurt her feelings? That just seems mean.
