Thanks for the tip on Craig's. We are about due to re-trace some previous routes too.

To take away maybe,
"Spirituality means something different to everyone. For some, it's about participating in organized religion: going to church, synagogue, a mosque, etc. For others, it's more personal: Some people get in touch with their spiritual side through private prayer, yoga, meditation, quiet reflection, or even long walks.

Research shows that even skeptics can't stifle the sense that there is something greater than the concrete world we see."

Recently when a scientist was explaining why science got the previously firm estimate of dark matter in the Milky Way so wrong, he observed that dark matter was akin to being in a room with the lights off: just because you can't see anything, doesn't mean there is nothing there.

Keep well and in all quadrants.

Poirot,

Thank you for the kind words, the flowing locks used to get remarks from women on occasion to the effect that it was wasted on a man, my hair is fairly fine as well.

These days it's not as long, taken at a wedding in Mumbai,India, a year or so ago. The bit of pink ribbon tells one and all that I'm in the bride's party.

Paul,

Used to get a few looks in Newtown!!
But never any trouble as the 10inch dirk at the hip and the 'skian dubh' in the stocking top send a message.
