@ContentLeftist says (sorry her account is locked but I need to give credit of course) is one who listens and does what is told when it comes to such things. So maybe it's good you are taking a step back and thinking. I don't know!2 replies 0 retweets 4 likes -

You weren't wrong! :) We're quickly hiding from the heat now, but will be out again soon. I do hope to talk to you soon.
