It is from all the hugging. Roll on March! Very true Ian, I notice that when I return from a couple of days in the south my arms and shoulders ache. It is from all the hugging. Roll on March!

Handshakes and hugs and kisses are frequent here. I noticed in Austria that even the English are becoming much more continental, I met an English woman with whom I had skied last year and it was automatic to exchange kisses.

I just want to come over and give you a big squeeze. I've been lucky to have lots of hugs this week. My best friend has a 'seven second hug' rule. If I'm feeling down she'll just hang on - none of this pat on the back and on your way and my sister's a big hugger too so I'm very lucky. Well done on the nomination. Well deserved, particularly for your reminiscences of a time gone by and you're the most loyal of commenters. I hope you're elevated to the top ten. (Then you'll just have to go to the soiree!) I'll send you one of those tricycles with a little flag! Aww Grannymar. I just want to come over and give you a big squeeze. I’ve been lucky to have lots of hugs this week.
