I'm printing yours out and hope to read sometime tomorrow. I've decided that if my lovely colleagues can't manage to be even semi-competent, I don't have to give up all my free time hopelessly chasing a deadline. They pay me well, but not enough for that. Lives don't depend on it.
OTOH, what I think I may have forgotten to mention to you is that my sister plus husband and child (!) are coming to visit on Saturday and staying for a few days...?
Anyway... maybe Saturday, before they arrive!
