Diem Family Is that the same Diem Diem that run a small travel Agency in Hoi An? - I wanted to contact the nice young lady there who gave me a birthday present of a silk tie - it was a radom act of kindness and I would love to thank her - I never got a chance as the gift came via a travel friend and I didnt get it until we were climbing into a taxi to leave> I hope you have an email for Diem Diem
Many Thanks

Holmes SErvice went off well and well attended.Keith Suter and I both spoke briefly plus family and church friends. Glad to hear of your trip. Always sounds interesting .I went Nagasaki in 1988 or so to an IPPNW Conference starting at Hiroshima. Lovely trip, yes we saw lots of schooies. Amazing to consider the damage done. Hope we never see another such bomb lrt off

Now officially retired (well sort of) I think we'll be taking up this traveling lark with a vengeance! ... full info

I was wondering what to read on my plane trip to the US next week--so now I'll look for some Katherine Mansfield stories. Thanks!--Martha
