Doesn't sound minor if it needs a scotch and soda, Were they Latvian roses?
The Latvians I've known haven't been as forward as that, but you never know
these days.

Don't know about 'males'. I drifted back from t'pub tonight and it was a
'need' of some kind that led me there. What that makes me, well, I just
don't know. I'm no 'boy' but I was transfixed at times by the cricket scores
that flashed up on some of the screens that surrounded us. Better than the
flashes of our current 'prime miniature' on news reports. We're all off to
vote tomorrow. Wish us luck!
Best,
Jill
