Wow Egypt? That's great! I've always wanted to go. I'm ok, still struggling to get legal so I can come home. I'm so desperately home sick at the moment. I was laughing so much this morning because I remembered something hillarious, you and I were the only ones on Dale one afternoon and found that bag full of Ann bensons old clothes. Remember?? She had such great fashion taste. Xxxx
