May 8 2008 We had a good meeting yesterday morning. I was almost too late for the appointment, because the busses were not going to town. Just when I decided to take the train and phone that I would be too late, the buss came. I had to run from the busstop, which was no fun, as this nice weather is bad for my asthma.
