Could I suggest that Teresa's cause of the funds for the triplets eye care could be supported with a straight donation on top of the lunch?



If this idea is taken up I will email Tersa and tell you what I will contribute (although not lunching with Sheila and Lilli) when I'm next over with you

Ode' to Smithy...

We met one Friday at the end of May - that's "Smithy" of the Forum said Lilli Spina!

Since then we have shared many a posting, drink and meal, with Sheila and other friends at a nororious venue

Turn right after the Golden Lady - are the directions many will know

Where does this lead to? - Why Guido's Bistro

Good Luck Sheila when you return to UK/Essex - but remember all your friends from NC, Peckham and Essex

We will be meeting in the UK of that you can be sure -but a regroup in Cyprus would be worth hoping for

So without further ado - its goodnight from me, goodbye from Steve and bon voyage for your forthcoming tours

Best Wishes Irene and Steve xx
