    A very fine institution of higher learning. Glad you found your way to Virginia. Might be a bit of hike for you, but you are welcome to march with us in Alexandria Scottish Christmas Walk, tomorrow.

    interesting, I'm not sure, would have to depend on my productivity, but if I could get some more details it might be fun.

    Good to hear from you String

    As a living history buff (i.e. "reenactor") & former member of v.Prueschenk's Feldjäger Corps (amongst others), I'm still quite envious of the location of your school!

    Glad to see you are still with us.I just finished a cosy waistcoat in time for the cold weather, ten strands of really fine yarn hand knitted on big needles - big for me anyway, and now I am working on my fine gauge knitting machine with a single strand of fine yarn - 77rows to 4 inches.Such infinite variety.I used to knit and read - it semed to help the memory - I can still remember what I was reading when I was making some of the jerseys I still have - so when I pick up my dark blue with flecks jersey I think about polyps, medusae and jellyfish. Not bad after 40 years....Anne the Pleater - BSc
