Apology gladly and very happily accepted. You must remember that I was
brought up far more formally than most folks and I am relatively
old-fashioned in my views on what is polite etc. American's constantly drive
me wild!

Volcanic! But it's just as awful as my fourth cousins' Though not as bad as
our mutual ancestor Ivan the Terrible's. My Mother, on the other hand, who's
HPB's third Cousin puts both HPB and Me in the shade. Her temper is nuclear!
She's 90 years old and hasn't mellowed a hair!

P.S. Sorry I "went off", but on occasion I do. My furies are like summer
squalls, "all sound and fury, signifying nothing", I am quick to anger and
quicker to forgive.
