Anja has told me that a "Cowboy Hat and Flip-flops" maybe frowned upon, in some circles,..so I will remember not to wear them to Church!..I am very much looking forward to being there! One of the things I noticed was avenues as they should be, ..lined with trees!,..over here, because of rising litigation, they do away with most things that envolve a court case against the local council..( even going as far "fencing off" a Pear Tree, in case it's fruits fell upon the head of an unsuspecting passer by!)..so to see those trees in all their mature glory was a heartwarming sight indeed! Speak soon! and have a great weekend! cheers! Ali Thank you kindly, Good Sir!, and any tips would be well received!
