Mary, this is a joke leftover from last year's BBQ - but if you ask Laurie really nicely - I bet she would share some (or one) of her mattresses. She had quite a collection last year.

It is a long story - we can share it with you when you arrive.

Also, I started thinking about last year and including spouses there were 12 Pet Talkers including myself last year.

This year my guest list is up to 27 at last count. Is that exciting or what?

My neighborhood will never be the same!!
