    Sometimes, the wisdom of Lir is just what you need. In fallow times there is always the rest of us. What is the issue? providing it is not interior design I am willing to put my thinking cap on. Oh I just remembered I have a brain injury. I wont be offended if you try me last for wisdom.

    One of my neighbours has only just had a holiday there, though I don't know which part of the country she went to. I did think she was a bit rash to go to Turkey! those poor people :(

    Nikkster Hang in there :) Sounds as if you're "feeling the fear and doing it anyway" :T

    Yes, definitely a do it anyway situation. Some decisions are much harder when you're a unit of one. The buck definitely stops with me!

    Spirit, you've always been beyond wise and kind with it. In this situation I'm pretty sure I know what I should do, but that is the braver option. I just need to give it my best shot and see it to completion. I'll break the encryption as soon as I can but I'll definitely be asking to borrow your crossed fingers and vibes at the end of the month. Until then all focus on Gen...

    ...who I can't believe is PPR!!! Thank goodness Mrs Gen knows where to find us :)

    Good plan Pyxis.

    That's one of the problems with online posting. Against the substantial upside of getting to meet people from all over the world that you wouldn't otherwise be in contact with, you don't get the sense of any nuance, body language, picking up on the non-verbal stuff etc.

    Apparently I can't mention a posting issue I have had recently, for fear of court action, against MSE and me. So I won't mention it. Just to say that there is a lot of things that go on under the radar.

    For heaven's sake. (Heaven is not a word I'd normally use, but the one I want is slightly heavier than 'idiot')

    The world is actually collapsing in on itself.

    How do we get him freed?

    And silvercar, wtaf!?

    Solidarity, nice people. Solidarity x
