       How are all our American & Canadian Friends doing with this ghastly hurricane? Are you all safe & sound? The pictures we're seeing on the BBC news look pretty devastating with cleanup costs running into the billions. Do let us know that you're ok,
                      Much Love,
                                       Nigel & Ann.
