              So sorry I couldn't get there, typically my computer was out of action most of the week and impossible to use on Sunday. Also typically, since Monday morning it has been OK. I shall sit with the recording tomorrow evening, my usual Tonglen practice sit.
              Thank you so much Washin, and Kokuu.
