What a shame you couldn't rescue any of her lace stuff, Ilske. Aren't relations really annoying sometimes!! Like my father who suddenly decided to give a cousin my absolute favourite and cherished series of children's books, tossing out the first 3 volumes as being too tatty to give away, just one month before I was due to come to France, without telling me what he was doing first, and after having had those books on the shelves for 30 years without saying anything!!! I always meant to take them with me to Australia, but always had something better to put in my suitcases before. If I'd known, I would have rescued them before he threw them out! I got back the ones he gave to my cousin, fortunately (I saw her reading one and mentioned that I had them too...and she told me Dad had given them to her!)but I can't replace the first 3. ...And I don't think that my father has ever understood why I was so upset!! On the other hand, when my parents packed up my stuff and sent them to me in a container, around 1980, they didn't pack those books up,or any of my French books, but they packed my series of Forsyte Saga and Georgette Heyer's paperbacks, which I can pick up here in any small bookshop anywhere!!Wouldn't you think they would have asked me what I wanted? Even though they sent the container as a surprise. Find local movie times and trailers on Yahoo!
