Who has a better right to the hospitality of her former home and a Sunday dinner than a daughter and her family?? My family was a real extended family on Sundays, whether it be at our house, my grandparents' house, or my uncle's house. Sunday was always "family day," and my parents and grandparents would never have it otherwise.*p*     There is no limit to Celtic hospitality. There is a story I recall where a king had to keep providing for even unwelcome guests for as long as they stayed under his roof, and the length of their stay was not determined by him, but by them. Probably Searles can come up with the names and particulars of this tale, as I just can't dredge it up out of this failing memory right now.*p*     I must admit that I find this a rather odd question. Don't you like your sister?*p*Leigh
