The jig is up. We've been outed. Tonight's clandestine meeting is cancelled. We'll have to come up with new ways to get others here to attack one another. E-mail me with suggestions. We don't dare let this group start to act like grownups.

Too B late, my flight is booked on a private Lear Jet. Do you have any idea what they charge for a cancellation?

Drat! I had the batmobile all greased up and ready to fly too. Let me know new venue and time and I'll give my broomstick an oil change and come of that instead.

You'd have to be nominated to join our secret and rude society. Can you promise to be evil to everyone we point out? You can't learn the secret handshake until you've been tested. Start out by being friendly to everyone. It throws our detractors off our trail.

Oh Dear Anne,more to worry you both. I do hope it wasn't something serious, and is being treated.

On of my Friday dancing partners had a similar op a few weeks ago and turned up with a plastic splint on her finger. It was a tricky business to hold her hand for some moves without gripping her hand tightly.
The splint didn't *seem* heavy though, I'll ask her about it next time I talk to her. There must be some metal encapsulated in plastic for it to be heavy, surely? -- Gordon H Remove "invalid" to reply
