        All this talk of squashed tomato sandwiches, does anybody else remember Marlon in the Perishers cartoon strip in the Daily Mirror years ago? :snork:

                    Working today, not unusual. But have now, the next 5 days off. Thursday--have a massage appointment. and then guess house something to do. Friday, a memorial service to go to and then driving down to meet up with a friend for long lunch. Its a 2 hour drive both ways. you all might know her S. Davis, she is visiting from the UK. this will be twice we met up.
                    Anyway, then Saturday--just doing whatever, then out to our favorite restaurant for dinner, and then its Sunday. hanging out. Have not figured out dinner on Christmas yet. not worried, I can though something together. Got Wine, that is all that is important. Monday off, have not a clue yet. so that is it.
