  1. Thank you, Andrea, Johnny, Barbara, Helen, Mary, Allison and Christopher for your kind comments. Much appreciated!

    Warmly,

  2. Now that your haiku won first place, you could donate those coins to an organisation that can convert the money to a charitable institution. ;-) Maybe they'd print your winning haiku as part of a slogan too. Good haiku! ;-)
