<DIV>Hi, everyone! Been out of the loop for over a week -- adjusting to
this neat new weather! :-P</DIV>
<DIV>
Hope you get adjusted soon!
The 'best' is yet to come (from a life-long Ansteorran).<BR><BR>Thank you for
the news, Cyril. :-) And thank all of you for your encouragement and support.
:-)</DIV>
<DIV>
Congratulations!<BR><BR>FYI, my
long-ago registered name is Francesca Lucia d'Alberto dei Lorenzi, hence the
Ladyship Francesca reference. I am changing my name to Esther, so please,
especially since we already have so many conspicuous Francescas, just call me
Esther. :-) (And yes, I prefer Ladyship to "Honorable Lady" on the grounds
that it's easier to _say_! :-D)</DIV>
<DIV>
*What?* Change your
name? What fun is that? With at least three of us in the locale,
we could really have some fun confusing people! Right Francesca?</DIV>
