Well, not where I come from. Thanks, Trubes, we have dance class this evening but afterwards I too will raise a glass as you suggest :-)<br /><br />Have 'Matilda' on in the background - it's like watching my biography without the advantage of being able to work magic. The sky is belching ice down on us and the emerging buds are cowering at being caught out in their impudence. The prospect of spring flickers like a candle in the wind. And I long for the warmth of the season.Philipahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03440234602399886097noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1951383775805178587.post-71421076760884678312010-02-09T11:58:48.904+00:002010-02-09T11:58:48.904+00:00P.S.
