I finished my reads. It was a very good OWC in my opinion. Nice stack of shorts, many were very out of the box. Don't know where you all come up with those ideas, so different and crazy. I'm happy I was a part this time.

So glad to hear that, Kham. You’ve warmed my heart.

Sincere apologies to the group for not commenting on all the great scripts.

I forgot how old I was and managed to dislocate my shoulder trying to climb in the bathroom window after locking myself out of the house.

I will read and rate each of these lovely scripts in between feeling sorry for myself.

Who never did?
Once I was able to open the door from outside, thru the mail slot, on the door, in the house I was renting a room in Portsmouth, Uk.
I was happy to have a tiny hand and also have lotion in my bag.

Get better soon, Damien.

Can someone please send me a voting ballot? I seem to have accidentally deleted mine. Oops.
