Lovely, Melba, thanks!

On a rather different note, in case any of you are Doc Martin fans, I 
just saw the episode where the recently widowed Mrs Tishell motors to 
the Godrevy Lighthouse on a quasi-date with a man from her reading 
group--a Woolf pilgrimage for them, though the sceptical Mrs T has not 
gotten past the first page. Fun to be on the boat, on the lighthouse, 
inside too if that part is actually filmed there.

Happy autumn,

Christine
