Its annoying to find so much written about one of our relatives on the web which is wrong. She was Belgium, she was engaged to Tchikovsky, they discussed marriage seriously, even though he was open to her about being gay. They felt it could be a beneficial musical union, as she was a soprano. They wrote each other pieces of music. She decided against marriage in the end, due to him being gay, not because her mother destroyed the relationship. My family on Moonglums side has several letters which they sent to each other, so we do know what we are talking about!

Funny story

Heard about the hedgehog that got stuck in a fence? http://news.bbc.co.uk/1/hi/england/merseyside/5297554.stm "one appliance was sent to the scene to rescue it".
Imagines fridge or other appliance racing to the rescue.

Yay says a lot of people! 
However, you can't take water onboard. I have a strange condition where I choke on my own saliva, happens most days, I carry water constantly for this reason.
Also, now that it is offensive to wear something with Arabic words on it, I find the thought of traveling there by air, very offensive indeed. I had Arabic friends at college and learnt a little of the language. They are actually human! Even quite nice, some of them. The way they are treated by airlines now is disgusting. Why did no-one ask what the sentence meant, instead of assuming it meant the guy was a terrorist.
I like a few Arabic musicians, I am now very tempted to get some t-shirts with them on, so long as it includes some arabic words of course.
Anyway heres the link to the story http://news.bbc.co.uk/1/hi/world/americas/5297822.stm
Makes you wonder if they found phrase offensive which was taken up by anti-Nazis, what they think of Nazi phrases?
