Dear Ann

Your Dad took a tumble the other day. On the stock market I mean, though, even with the cost of health care, a bone would have been less painful than the damage to our bank account. He's been investing in the technology stocks (Simon's advice!), and the falling prices caught him out. Not that we're suddenly broke you understand, but we may have to tighten our belts for a while. It was a good thing in some ways, he was getting addicted, watching the prices, it’s just like gambling. Anyway I don't want to keep bothering you but let us know the dates when you can - we may have to fly economy!

By the way I saw a lovely gown in Wedding magazine. Are you going lacey?
