Oh! Jeanette, How sorry I am to read you are somewhat incapacitated. Your were still able to type a note to us - using one hand. Just shows what you can do "with one hand tied behind your back". (An American expression to describe busy women.) Everyone - if Jeanette (South Africa) had not corresponded openly on Arachne, we would not have pursued private correspondence, which led to our arranging to meet each other last year at the OIDFA congress in France. It was something we both enjoyed looking forward to, and it was fun. Perhaps there are people who do not know that Noelene's lace poems were published in a 16-page booklet "Inspired by Lace", 2004, that could be purchased from at least one lace book vendor (because that is how it came into my library). Perhaps Noelene will read this note and know that some of us would like to purchase and read an expanded version. Perhaps it could be offered first at the OIDFA Congress in Australia next year?

Just think how much poorer we all would have been without Noelene's wonderful witty poems!!! Then she is even generous enough to allow them being used in newsletters the world over! I hope Arachne lasts another 20 years! How many of us will still be around then :-)) Jeanette Fischer, Western Cape, South Africa.
