We also do not want to put pressure on Sylvain to feel he has to post every day regardless of other things he is doing (and he seems to stay very busy for someone who is supposed to be retired). He usually pops in most days and we know where to look each day to see if there is a Lucy update. To fill in the gaps other topics get discussed, but it seems to swing back to Lucy as it should. I am not aware at the moment of any unpleasant comments about anyone, but if so, we need to do better and concentrate on good topics (like cruises - Sylvain led off with that one). "Wandering about like cattle" is an interesting metaphor - too cold today to do much but sit around and chew my cud (as in hay and grass, not tobacco).
