Somewhere - Thailand, I believe - recently appealed for tourists not to desert them, as so many of their population depend on tourists for their living. Without the tourists, their economy collapses, and things are even worse for the locals, and for years to come. (And I expect the advertising was booked months ago.) And may I take this opportunity to say "Happy New Year" to everyone, and to thank you all - all you amazing lacemakers - for so many interesting and funny and useful messages: I'm proud to know you. Best wishes, Linda Walton, (hoping for a a lovely *boring* 2005, in lovely *boring* High Wycombe, Buckinghamshire, U.K.).
