Please excuse my impertinence, safflower...

Good evening, m'ladyalex - I hope you're well today? :-)

[ladyalex]

Very well, your majesty and greatly refreshed by my short holiday

[Lie-in King]

I had pondered over your absence! I'm glad you had a nice time :-)

It'll soon be time for din-dins, but I expect we'll meet up again later!

[safflower]

Thank you ladyalex and Lie-in King. I'm delighted to host your mutual friendship. Best wishes all. I may need you again as I'm going to start the Ft now.
