OK, but no tongues on a first date. It opens on the 6th but I'd guess that weekend it will be like the retreat from Moscow, so probably best avoided. The following weekend I can't do.
I can do the rest of February, but it would have to be a Sunday since my Saturday mornings are fully occupied with French until April. Or if you'd prefer a weekday I could take a day off work, but it would have to be not at the beginning of the month. Bob > > > ---- Bob W <[email protected]> wrote: > > Order them today.
