John Lennon is one of my favorites, but "Watching the Wheels" is not at the classic rock caliber of Satisfaction.
Satisfaction.

Don't think so. Last count was a 4-4 tie, and I think there is another round coming up.

I was worried about you.....no..... concerned is a better word.

No, I've just been very busy. Last I checked I knew it was a tie so I waited for someone to break it. Feel free to contact Tyr when it's a tie a long period.
thanks for the concern, though.

A tie-break vote, shockingly late because I've been offline for the entire month while traveling.

If you turn around at https://maps.google.co.uk/maps?hl=en&ll ... 56,,0,8.13 you'll see the cottage. It's on an island off the coast of Scotland, getting to New York would have been far quicker.

I spent a while getting there and a while getting back and the rest of the trip enjoying the island's ambiance. During the course of the vacation I've messed my right leg up sufficiently that I now have four appointments booked at my local treatment room for re-bandaging. The limp from a sprained ankle is fading slowly but the hematoma from falling hard on my shin is persistent and unpleasantly deep.
There were ten of us in the lodge, one being my younger daughter who arrived direct from driving slowly around the US from Lake Erie to New York by way of Tennessee. I have yet to see her photos. I think she was away for three months before she hit Scotland.

Pretty Woman for meI wondered if anyone would notice. I still haven't addressed the sound issue with my box and so I figured you all could find versions to listen to.
But, no, I'm not bored with this. As I said, I've been very busy.
