Welcome to my humble abode, Blanche, it's great to have a visit from other neighbours! I suppose that includes Hylas too LOL. When you get your own threads we can all pour over and return your call. And don't worry, my own bank account is looking a bit depleted after my purchase too.

I think I'll pass up on the Praefecture, that sounds too much like hard work LOL, but congratulations on Tianguez, Maria, it looks super over there!

You're right about the Roman wine though - you didn't happen to bring over any chocoatl with you, did you?
