Sum Off, This is a quality write-up - cracking. I think, I have been away from Sajha for just far too long - I think, you've done a jolly old job by plugging the gap I feel sharply at the absence of the two luminaries from the 'Sajha literary canon' whose writing I've come to love in the last 12 months or so that I have been introduced to Sajha: SITARA and John Galt. I miss SITARA and her earthy humour - very sorely. Please do keep them coming. I liked the concluding line: "because my wife’s concept of not living a dull life is all about swiping plastic cards." ;-) Pure marital bliss eh! Blimey! :-) I look forward to reading more of your stories in due course - fiction or non. Oh, very many congratulations. Carpe diem
