Avala

Yes, CTG, those photos are Av. A long time ago now. Fond memories of him and the old chattery as he, we, used to call it.

I'd completely forgotten that yesterday, October 3rd, was the seventh anniversary of my 'getting off the bus in Athens'.

Thank you, Vila for doing as you had promised: meeting me at the Greyhound station and taking me home to be your wife. Here I still am, and neither one of us...

That said, I think I'll give the movie a go. Thanks Philip

Sorry about that, Robert. This new computer of mine has had Dan and me both baffled. I couldn't remember any of my passwords -- it doesn't help that we're told to use a different one for each thing we use and to not write them down -- and Dan couldn't figure out how to get them back.

Oh my goodness, Ali! How lovely is that!

Jeff, I've emailed you dates and other details. I trust that the email address I have for you is the same as that in my contacts list.

How frustrating! (No, I don't mean that Howard is frustrating here.. just that our England schedule is out of sync with the schedules of others for meet-ups.)

Jon, we will be leaving Cosham for Bristol sometime mid-morning on the Friday 13th for our marriage blessing, which is scheduled...

This nudged a childhood memory for me. For years my sister-in-law's mum, who lived next door, had a secret string method for us to open the always locked front door. It was a Yale lock with string tied to the knob. One reached through the letter box and pulled the string. Unfortunately that same secret...
