Thanks, everyone.
Mish, I was unable to reply to your email. Something about it being blocked. It's probably your 'puter virus?
Ric, you're not wrong -- I could do with a holiday.
David, I'm not sure if it's because of endocrine cancer, but, I am able to put up with cold really well. It's either that, or, I've gotten used to living in Canberra and its -5 to -7 winter nights. It was freezing cold every single morning, but, one must suffer for his art -- I suspect the images will be worth it.
