Thanx Joy!Mary; thanx AFZAL (and Sunny7)

Joy!Mary, you are most welcome. I really admire our bishop. Last year was good with him, this year was superlative. A kind, efficient man, he is also called the greatest social worker in our parts. shalomfromneil

Lovely pictures and elegiac sonnet, attuned to the time of year and the

feelings it inspires - a praiseworthy effort indeed, Neil - well done - and sorry to hear the sad news.
