Actually, the UK Lace Guild's convention would explain the silence from the UK, but NOT the blissful silence from the US. Meanwhile, I got dozens of private emails thanking me for speaking out about ceasing the discussion regarding the IOLI name change and taking it to Denver where it belonged.
But - alas - the subject appeared yet again this morning, so I suppose that the delete key will just have to stay active!! Meanwhile, I am impressed at the lack of interest on the part of the press for the union of Prince Charles and "the rotweiller". I laughed uproariously at the descriptions of the feathered hats worn by the hoity toity on Saturday, but on a search of the internet could only find one picture of a guest - the daughter of the rotweiller - and the descriptions were accurate!! Incredible what some people do in the name of fashion. Her "headdress" looked like a pile of undercooked fettucini nested on one side of her head!! OK - I've been naughty, but after their 35 years of "in your face" misbehavior, that's small potatoes!!
