as we said, this friday, driving back late sunday (she usually sleeps whilst i keep awake through xm radio's 80s station!)

You actually in Jenkintown? I lived in Abbington for a summer ('89) while dad was stationed in NADC Warminster. Worked at Willow Grove Mall (the long gone Thom McAnn shoe shop across from the Sears) and used to bike back roads down to the hobby shop that was off old york rd (don't know if its still there).
