...and what's new upon the 'homefront'?...well, I was to send my mother another email, last Friday...and I have had no reply as yet...in fact, come to think of it...I haven't had a reply in quite a while...seeing as my parents didn't reply to my email before that...suggesting that they might consider a holiday in the sun, to beat the winter/Christmas blues.....that my mother normally suffers from....and so I wonder what they're up to?...go figure.
