I had a lovely time Monday, Aurora. We must do it again soon.
The wonderful thing about having finished school and having settled into one's life's work is that those scores are no longer important. Once through the examination gateway, the subjects we didn't pursue lose their significance except as sources for amusing anecdotes.
Ask me next time to tell you about my appalling failure to master Runes. I've often thought I ought to give them another go: I'd love to take a rambling holiday to study the ancient markers and crosses. I'm very fond of history, and it would undoubtedly be healthful to spend a month in the fresh air of the countryside.

There's a fond fancy for an icy morning!
