Contact.

After another day of pondering whether or not GM was OK, KfW2 suggested that I message GB. They used to be close, so if something was bothering GM, she might know. I sent the text and waited for a reply... and waited... Five minutes before GB replied, I got a text message from GM. His first actual contact in weeks. Everything was fine, he said. He'd just been keeping a low profile with his family over Xmas.

It was good to know that he's OK, but I'm still no closer to knowing what he wants to do for New Year's Eve though.
