Hey, Sunspace. Things still progressing?
Yes, they are! 
We will be meeting on Saturday. Yesterday she wrote to me and included some words in French. 
If all goes well, I may be able to send some solar mojo your way.

Well, that’s that.
We didn’t hit it off on Saturday, and today I got a nicely-written note from her confirming this from her end and thanking me for a pleasant time. I was planning to write a similar note this evening, but was scratching my head over it, wondering whether I was imagining things or not, and totally uncertain of her feelings.
I am strangely-relieved and almost happy; in some way I feel that I have negotiated one of life’s rapids in a civilised way that I have never done before. I can move on, and so can she.
I’s summer!
Better to have loved and lost, etc. At least you got a nice evening out of it.
holds onto a golden arrow for you, just in case
Thanks.
I have also proven that I can whomp up a suitably-impressice mini-picnic on short notice.
