Linda ................

hot weather, south-facing room with many windows!

School begins this week here, that almost always means hot sunny weather for at least 7-10 days.

At least the nights are cool, but this room gets to over 30C during the day.

I have limited time on the computer during these months. I retreat to the cool north-facing living room and read ;-)

A pestilence of posters

A rabble of readers

A tangle of typos

An unidentifiable unit

A worry of wordsmiths

Sylvia, I renewed today. :-D

However, I wasn't on 'Auto Renew, and had no reminder email. :-|

I tried to post, and got the message to renew, which was the first I knew.

..... they were having problems renewing my subscription.

Not surprising, new credit card last December :-D

What was surprising (and made me annoyed with myself), was that it was on Auto Renew ........... annoyed with myself because I had forgotten to check that. So I had not had a reminder and had also not noticed that RENEW was showing on the very top line.

Memory must be going!

No matter .............

I renewed, at the same old same old cost.

so you've got me around to pester you all for another year :-D :-D
