Thanks for your kind words, Chichi. Good mates are a rare thing. I hope you find yours. You seem very worthy of a good one.

Thank you ExMaggie Drum for your very kind words. I'm not actually a writer as a few have surmised. However, I am keenly aware of how the character of ChiChi is a bit 'out there' for most, which makes the your supportive and constructive input on the thread all the more valuable. thank you!
