But.. but he said we were exclusive! :pssst:

PS Howya Steph? You doing ok? Keeping safe I hope.

I'm well! Dumped the old dopey boyfriend, kept a great distance from wildfires (didn't even have to evacuate this year!), came out as queer, moved to the forest, got a girlfriend, got dumped by the girlfriend, said **** monogamy anyway, and now am doing my own damn thing and being a big queer slut all about these woods. It's been a wild year.

How are you? And how's Karen?

You should know that a few months ago I was notified that Hermione/Sansa died. I posted the news in this thread and elsewhere, so wanted to get that out of the way in case you stumble across anything.

Cheers TH, glad to see you.

Glad to hear you're well, and congratulations in coming out, though really these days that shouldn't even be necessary, should it? Karen's fine thanks; she ended up in hospital but not due to Covid, however it was at the height of the lockdown here, so it was a pretty terrifying time. She was in for about four days, and even I had to get special permission to travel in the ambulance with her. Even with A&E supposedly "empty", we still had to wait eleven hours before she was seen - sorry, before I had to go home (3:00 AM) and the next morning I heard the news I dreaded, that I usually prefer to hear as it means they're taking what she has seriously and not just sending her home, that she was being admitted. That was a long four days and I had some serious nightmares waiting for her to come home safe.

Would you say you're going your own way?

No but you can if you want to Lindsey Buckingham

Sounds like she's mastur-ing her own future... :shycouch: Don't bait her...

My piece of **** fridge briefly caught on fire this week but that's about it. San Diego was logged with smoke from the fires but they were all pretty far away. Cali's a massive state (about 6 times the size of Ireland for a frame of reference) and I'm near the very bottom. I appreciate the concern though.

OK cool, that's all right then. I have to admit, even before I made my way back I worried about you and others living in California as I watched news about the fires. I had a vision of you going in a moment of panicked hesitation "What do I take? Guitar? Peter Brotzmann collection? Beard comb? Dear God I can't decide! And what about my boxed set of free jazz albums? I can't carry everything!"

Wouldn’t the Brotzmann be with the free Jazz albums?

You'd have to ask him. I haven't dealt with him in a year; I'm reaching here. Anyway I doubt he'd be checking through the set as his house burned down around him...
