Appreciate directness

Ahhhhhhh *contented sigh*, I've chosen my friends well clearly. In my inbox this morning:

"I hope you're ok over there?! Any reason for not being in touch,
other than a chronic case of slackness on your part?! ;) "

I do love a bit of directness in a friend! *grin*

PS: Yes Will, I'm totally OK. Shall do my best to catch up with my slackness this afternoon! ;-)
