Andrea, you are so very welcome. I love your clandestine replies to my comments on your contest entries. I never know where you're going to pop up! We haven't yet seen Bohemian Rhapsody -but we want to- so thanks for whetting our appetites :) Cheers!

I loved Oliver, it was the first movie I ever saw in a fancy movie theater in the state capital, and I will never forget the luxury of the velvet seats, the flocked wallpaper, and being mesmerized the entire time. Thank you for a reminder poem as I do believe I had almost forgotten until I read it.
