	Hi all Problem with having to read 4 pages or more before I post means I forget what I read 4 pages back .................. so won't attempt to comment, in case I make a mistake. There was somehting about women working at the speed of computers though, wasn't there? Of course, we can :)))) we's clever! Had a great time last night as per usual over here, dress code varied from t-shirt and pants (couple of the men) to "garden-party" summer dress (some of the women). About 10 per cent of the men wore suits, the rest wore blazer or sport coat with pants. In other words, I fit right in! Food good :))) After-dinner entertainment, to begin the dancing ........... an Elvis Presley impersonator to be more precise .......................... a Chinese-Canadian Elvis Presley impersonator! He acknowledged his ancestry with comments about Jackie Chan He was good!!! s xxxx

	Gins I did think the T-shirt and trousers were a leeeetle bit too casual. Like you, I'm old-fashioned that way! Both were actually members of the family, one being a pretty severely mentally handicapped young man in his 20s ...... maybe understandable in his case. s xxx
