I've never won anything in a writing competition before, so even an honourable mention has put on jupiter. <BR/><BR/>I think you've handled your recent stressful situation very well. We are here, as always, doing this thing we love, and that's all that counts. And Susan is on board on my blog now too. <BR/><BR/>I'm glad you liked the Christmas tea. The Madagascar tea is good too, and so is "the devil's body" tea! Good with a cracking book and the cat at the feet. :)S.

Haven't yet made it to check the other entries but I really liked yours. Very poignant but positive too. You made every word count - crucial for an exercise like this but also a good skill to have for longer pieces.<BR/><BR/>Thanks so much for your balance and support.
