How many coffees do you normally have in a day? @Lee71
It's raining here, I doubt I'll get out for a walk today. Same there?

@NatureLoverno the sun is actually out.
Sorry you won't be able to get out for your walk, hopefully the rain stops so you can.

Thanks, I need to get out in nature for my mental health. The rain looks pretty solid right now. I'm glad you have some sunshine 🙂
I was wondering, did your 14 years in America give you a bit of an American accent?
