Hi there Stan! Yes, Phil and I have been having a very good weekend so far - thanks for wishing that for us! Here it is now just after 12:45pm on Sunday - that's daylight saving time, which came in overnight! We have been having rain here too - every bit like this is much appreciated...coming towards our summer as we are now! It's better to get it gradually than in flood proportions all in one go - which does happen here at times! Keep enjoying your weekend Stan, and many good wishes to your Mum, too! :o) #2012972Stanley J. Contrades October 29, 2005
