Why thank you Deborah! I'm very well. I'm finally in my new quilt room - hooray! The lovely decoupage card I got from you (time before last, I think) sits on my windowsill and the calendar is on the wall by my computer.

It's funny - I was thinking about you just last night! I was watching a programme on TV about Scottish Country Dancing which is apparently quite popular in Tokyo, of all places. This chap comes over to summer school in St Andrews every year and teaches classes back in Tokyo. Apparently it's popularity is due to not only the discipline of the dances and the teamwork, but also the patterns of the sets, which form squares, circles and triangles which seemingly the Japanese like.

(Scottish Country Dancing is different to Highland Dancing which is often performed solo - although I think we'll seeing quite a bit of the latter on Hogmany/New Year's Eve, lol.)

Hae a Guid New Year ma freen.
