Your a wonderful story teller Lucilla, had me guessing all the way through. I've had quite a bit to do with nuns during my years, I once danced with one to 'The only way is up' by yazz, and could she swing it lol.

Sorry for the late reply, my computer crashed. Back to topic now. I'm glad that things turned around for them! But what surprised me the most is what you meant by brother-in-law. Such an intricate story, that made me unsure of where it was headed... but there's always some morals to your stories which make them stick with you better. Keep doing what you do!

It has always been hard for me to understand this life style choice of the nuns, but I realize what wonderful people they are, and this is a really GREAT story. I was thinking maybe it was going to turn out to be the true tale of some relation of yours! Loved it.
