Who says I was looking for it?

But I'd be more insulted about that remark if I didn't know she liked the Wolfe Tones, of all bands.

I think the term "horrified fascination" is more apt than "like"

Heh. That's not what you told me before.

How's your trip been? Did you get anything interesting done?

Demolish AAAAAALLLLL the things!

Or maybe just the old kitchen.

Demolish the kitchen? I thought you put that in fairly recently!

Not that one, silly, the upstairs one.

I just read your journal after I posted - that makes a bit more sense!

Yes, we built that kitchen for the ages, I'm not tearing it apart again already!

It's a little unkind to refer to your mother and D. as "The Ages".

Any last-minute stuff you want brought back from Germany, btw?

Hmmm, can't think of anything off the top of my head - thanks for the offer though.

Looking for a decent map of your area, but I can get that on Amazon or somewhere rather than send you scouring bookshops at the last minute

Hmmm, J is pretty happy with the geological one he found, but that might not be what you need.

That actually sounds right up my alley.

Happy birthday!

Thanks. Now I can open your e-mail

I wasn't ing, I just wanted to make sure it arrived ok!

It did, thanks.

Cool. They sent me a weird error message in a language almost, but not entirely unlike English, so I'm happier now I know that.

And don't forget that bit about the trophy!
