But a kind soul gave me the spare piecemy bike needed. Whoever said that people in London are not helpful? I found nothing but goodwill and assistance wherever I went today.<br /><br />Delwyn, have you got some mate? That's my choice of poison these days :-).<br /><br />Lizzy, it was a pleasure. Many thanks.<br /><br />Susana, it turns out that I root for Barca in Spain (funny, isn;t it?) but we went down with our boots on. At least we're not Arsenal! Anyway, I would like Barca to beat United in the final.<br /><br />Lyn and Gabby, a Yankee and always a Yankee, c'mon, Bombers!<br /><br />Midlife, I tip my hat to your husband's team. They beat us this season and they played well. Harry is a heck of a coach.<br /><br />Polly, the book is not on amazon. Click the link on my page and it will take to the Cambridge University Press website.<br /><br />Liset, Lornita (oh, yes, we were that close ;-D!) was/is my favourite ballet dancer ever.<br /><br />Thanks to you all.
