The truth is just catching up with us.<br /><br /><b>Tabor</b><br />Good point. I missed out on that!<br /><br /><b>Raj</b><br />From your comment, it seems to me that you got there. Thanks.<br /><br /><b>Brian</b><br />True, very true.<br /><br /><b>Laurie</b><br />Thanks. It was always going to end that way!<br /><br /><b>Corinna</b><br />Cheers!<br /><br /><b>The Weaver of Grass</b><br />Sounds like the ideal situation. I have always envied those who live in the country. Sometimes I wonder if it's just romanticism on my part.
