Ah good that you'll be able to go. Not to sound doomy gloomy but, will be good to spend the extra time with them while you can.

Well, it's one thing to be told not to blame yourself it's another to not blame yourself etc. My friend who passed away she didn't go right away (she attempted to, but hung around for a month in hospital before passing due to her injuries) As I wasn't related I wasn't allowed to visit (she was in intensive care) but my flatmate was. anyway, the point is, those feelings can come regardless of what they say, and even if it's logical or not. I don't know, just look after yourself. don't sweep it under the rug, your work mates are probably the best to talk to but if you need someone to read a netmail..

 Av> Yeah it's been cold and frosty this last 10 days but today is mild, it's

Yeah same, we had a really cold spell for a bit, now is not to bad, at night it gets down to 1 - 2 degrees.

 Av> Thanks Andrew, nice chatting and to see you active in BBS on your terms
 Av> that feel OK.

You too Paul. I'm going to do a release soon of talisman, with some bugs squashed. Also have a door game I'd been working on but have been distracted. I've got a few helpful testers for the door game but they're getting to the point where I stopped adding content... so I suppose I should do that, but kind of a bit burnt out after the last spree.

Might take the weekend easy a bit. We had antenatal class today, which felt like it went on forever, but was useful. part of it was a tour of the birthing suite, that brought a few tears as we haven't been there since we lost our girls.

Been playing LotRO a little bit again (Lord of the rings online) not much though as i'm broke and can only play on free mode at present. (Not that there's anything wrong with free mode, just things are a bit nicer when you buy a subscription)

well, talk to you later.

Andrew
