Maybe I can ask you questions on cropping / growing as Vince has a kitchen garden, "operated" by his mother, (god)mother(-in-law), and his Nonna. Would add a certain credibility.

Same here. Medicine is subsidized, actual health abolished as death of the Health system. Everyone wanting to be healthier must take care of it themselves (and for quite some it's unaffordable these days).

Agree with your Mum on the coffee, but toast!? Uah!

Have a great day, too, Ms. NormaJean AKA Writing Queen ... and enjoy the time with Mum. (I have a really old woman in my story, too... Nonna Stella's 92)

So back to work... gotta add some assignment(s) to the log, eh?
