    Congratulations for your own songs (I prefer the first one and "mine all mine", fast & fresh) and for "Shadows" (sipped yesterday night like an old Bordeaux). It makes feel like visiting Glasgow, considering the number of good songs coming from there.

    Konbanwa (good evening) Francis!
    I don't know why I thought today!  Well, I will be there and than you very very much!  I will bring my small presents then.  Oh do you know it was a football match which was Japan VS England on Sun.  And Japan made 3 goals and lost!
    1 was a good goal but 2 were OWN Goal....I felt very embarrasing!  Hope Japan will play better game at World Cup.
    The weather is changing so much recently.  So please take good care of yourself and your family!
    Have a lovely day tomorrow.
    Matane!
