  • Yes, still alive. Nothing to report, really.

  • Hehe!! Bet it's easier in the good weather here than in the rain you had last week, or whenever it was!

    Aww, sorry! But the point is that I bet you had to work harder to entertain your guest than we did. It's always so much easier when the weather smiles on you. So it's you who deserves a word or two of praise. And it was a lovely gesture to your neighbour.

    So maybe I'm not the only "glutton for punishment"?

    Anyway, it was a real pleasure. :)
