Ok, I beg to differ on this one, kat. I can't stand when people don't show and being a bit uneasy about the whole meeting in a coffee shop thing - I would be pleased if someone confirmed. But keep it absolutely the simplest. Friday app 3 PM - "See you tommorrow". That's it.

Yes, Wii - you have to be careful not to kill her with kindness. People are funny and they do scare off easily.
