I'm not sure where times goes. I sit here in the early hours of the morning loving my house here in Cornwall realizing that I left Dubai a week ago. In that time I have networked, met with friends, been to Dublin, loved ds2, sent two submission and cleaned my Cornish home. In an hour, I head to London to meet with ds1 for the weekend. I can't wait. Again it is such a treat to spend the weekend with my body guard. I say this because at 15 he towers over me (to be fair so does ds2) but ds1 has shoulders beyond belief and takes great delight that his mother is such a midget. So this weekend we will prowl a gallery watch a film or two and maybe see a show plus meet with more friends. I can't wait!

Dummy here had to google Hadewijch. Very interesting!
I loved her writings - back when I had a brain. I do miss when I remember :-)
LOL at throwing Milton into a burning building ~ after trying to wade through Paradise Lost as an under-grad I'm happy to help you throw!
So happy you are with me on Milton :-)
