God it's cold here !!!
Yesterday I went to a wedding-reception, it's a bit like a funeral-reception, i.e. the people affected line up at the entrance of the room and shake hands and exchange niceties withe the arriving guests; quite a few of which they have never met before. One just has to substitute the "congratulations" with "condolences" (even starts the same way) and there you are.
Must be extremely awkward standing there hours on end.
The little nibbles that kept arriving, and the booze was nice enough though.

The news about Peggy's neck could have been worse I guess, I just hope she takes the prescribed REST seriously; a thing hard to do when seven children need your attention.

The idea of organizing a "goodbye drink" or better a "see you later drink" , seems like a fun thing to do , I'm not sure about the date yet but that large cafe near the river with if I remember correctly, a rather tropical atmosphere, I think it's called "Petrol", seems like an appropriate place + there's ample parking space. I'll go and check it out somewhere this week, maybe saturday, when we change to witer time :-)
