In this post Donald and Anner have whetted the appetites of
long-established listers/talkers who await axniously Anner's finds in
the back alley tours of Richmond and Chesterfield county. Her
wordsmithing takes you there. Hang on; it can't be long now
until this masterpiece scrolls down your screen. Don't miss it.
It is a pleasure to see Anner posting again.

today with its bedmate TEL AVIV. These two mated last year and have
four children still in the nursery)
